...by dunking on their user bases
They don't really bother to hide the fact that their primary reason for existing is trollng and brigading, do they?
Edit: Here is proof that "dunking" is their term for organised brigading, where a hexbear member is posting a comment in another instance on hexbear "if you wanna dunk".
I mean, did anyone doubt that? There was a post about the Ukranian war not long ago where almost every single comment belonged to hexbear users, but nah, they weren't brigading at all, it's just a coincidence that they were the only ones who had anything to say.
Lemmy is already like, 80% anti-capitalist.
I would say they're preaching to the choir here, but this is far more obnoxious than preaching.
The Bolshevists wanted to kill the Mensheviks, though they were both against the capitalists. It ain't all peace and kindness on the Left
Left Unity until I say the revolution ends.
Ive seen dozens of hexbear and lemmygrad users post unironically that lefties that dont support Lenin and killing any and all capitalists also deserve to be murdered.
Hexbears users are all either trolls, pro russian and china fascism or both. They don't add any kind of value to the fediverse.
Is there a way to just block hexbear? Tankie nonsense almost kept me from trying Lemmy at all, and for the longest time, it’s been good. But recently it’s just tankies everywhere and I’m so over them.
Only way is to join instances that have tankie instances blocked.
Any recommendations?
lemmy.ca as well.
And hopefully sh.itjust.works in the very near future.
Lemmy.world
Some clients let you, 'connect for lemmy' lets you hide posts and comments from specific instances.
Kbin has the ability to block instances wholesale natively
Bad take. If u block em nobody is pushing them back. We can't let them open the door of acceptability.
Do non-hexbear people even post on hexbear? If so, why the hell do you torture yourself?
I post on hexbear, or did until they defederated.
I refuse to believe that people actually think like that. Hexbear is either filled with trolls, or it's a damn psyop.
Nah, not a psyop. Just sad people.
The sad truth is that unlike reddit, Lemmy is seen as "too small" and "not worth astroturfing".
It is plainly not fitting the Russian model of spreading propaganda and recruitment, so we aren't going to get wumaos and similar paid shills here.
These are unfortunately 100% real delusional sad people
So weird how they're brigading ever other post mentioning them but remaining suspiciously quiet on this one.
Haha, nooo, not suspicious at all! Lemmy.world has hexbear defederated, they can't access this thread.
I bet they have a bunch of alts on each instance.
they do, yeah.
Ahh gotcha, in that case I may never leave...
This is one brand of their typical users. The sooner everyone realizes they have nothing to offer, the better. Everyone needs to defed with hexbear.
What's really wild and astounding to me is any of them that might actually not be just trolls. Like, how do you not recognize you're the bad guys when everyone hates you for what you're doing to them?
Have you never met a narcissist in real life before?
If only those MLs understood that by forcing themselves on the public square most people will reject them, and with them the concept of socialism as a whole...
They don’t actually care about any ideology. They’re 100% trolls.
Loool fuck them and i am a commie Anarchist.
I wish Lemmy instances looked even a fraction as cool and Polished as hexbear though.
the feds aren't paying for nothing!
I am not sure i get your meaning?
If your implying that the feds are using funding to scan lemmy and list certain profiles then i am not worried. Anarchism is a genuine political stance and has been since the ancient greek. I am also a full on pacifist so good luck finding non existing dirt on me. I am no threat.
Lol no I'm talking about the feds funding hexbear
You peeked my interest to what intend?
https://sh.itjust.works/comment/2901411 This guy explains pretty well. This is really typical kinda stuff for feds - disrupt, discredit, divide. Real leftist discourse disrupts power. This hexbear shit does nothing of the sort
Oh, so basically COINTELPRO style operations.
While its hard not to take such comment as a wild conspiracy theory i do admit it makes some sense.
It fits very well with my feeling that both Russian and Chinese version ms off communism were part designed or influenced to act as a strawman to proof it leads to dictatorship. Conveniently always ignoring that the social classes never got abandoned.
Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.
A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves "socialist". The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes "true democracies". remember to censor usernames when necessary.
Please be sure to obscure usernames on posts to prevent doxxing.
