Problem is, people from Hexbear/Lemmygrad don’t stay in their corners. They brigade and flood into other communities and instances to spread their disinformation and vitriol, and shut out any real discussion. That’s been their explicit intended goal, to deny everyone else a forum. You can block their communities, but it’s the users themselves that are a serious problem. I’ve been blocking every Hexbear user I see and there’s still more that keep cropping up.
Where do they do this? Do you have links? So far what I’ve seen is they comment on posts that go viral on their instances, as they’re allowed to do. I can’t say I’ve had any problems with Hexbear users.
Typically, it’s on any post that mentions China, Russia or Ukraine, especially on lemmy.ml. The defederation post on lemmy.ca(Link here) provides several examples of very poor behaviour by Hexbear users, and I can personally attest that it is worse than that, having seen it.
