Finally some good moderation (mightily appreciated) on what was rapidly turning into Volkischer Beobachter, and look what libs have to say when suddenly discovered they can’t just spew every vile shit imaginable.
Of course it’s r/enoughtankiespam verbatim complete with “why there is so many nazis in our antiauthoritarian space”.
It genuinely feels like as soon as Hexbear started federating with others, the anti-coms of .world, .dbzero, and .works perceived themselves in a Soulsborne-style boss fight against just us, and then a second full health bar joins the fray. [le gasp] Now, it’s constant malding over hexbear, and that’s the funniest fuckin thing.
Right? Like we were the boogeyman for a couple months after the
influx and little did they know there was a much bigger threat lurking in the background
I for one welcome our hexagonal ursine comrades.
Likewise; they rather add something to the space. A certain, pardon my French, but je ne sais quois.
It really is incredibly hilarious. I have no idea why they focus so hard on hexbear and mostly ignore us. Maybe name similarities between lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml, I dunno. Maybe they don’t get that grad is a not subtle reference to Leningrad or Stalingrad, again, I don’t know.
I’ve got a hexbear account cooking though. I should post more from it just to get triggered™️ lib responses. This account doesn’t farm them enough.
I think it’s because most instances had defederated from us already and hexbear are very active posters, definitely much more active than we are. Other instances got blindsided when hexbear joined in, they thought we were the only “weirdo tankies” contained in our own instance lol
This is getting our of hand, now there are two of them.wav
