Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?

I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don't actually think everyone there is insane. I don't care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point

Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It's not going to scare me to take this down

And nothing of value was lost to the HexBear instance.

You guys are somewhat still mad that the censorship of defederation has cut you off from an influx of newcomers to influence. And your tears are absolutely delicious.

Hexbear has been around for 4 years, unfederated. They only started slowly federating around 10 months ago.

At least try to be honest.

Yeah, and they're mad that the sane fediverse didn't let them spread. That was the point. Your message is not a gotcha 😁

They aren't mad though, they enjoy the instances they are federated with and are happy they defederated sh.itjust.works and that Lemmy.world "pre-emptively as a last resort" defederated them before even federating.

Having a dedicated Leftist space without constant liberalism is nice.

I can understand how having you own space is enjoyable, but you won't convince me that you don't care that your influence has been contained. Otherwise you wouldn't feel the need to defend your instance so hard here, going as far as brigading other communities en masse?

You want anyone to believe you don't care about being deplatformed? Stop acting like you actually care.

My Lemmy.ml account is my older account, I'm defending Hexbear from misinformation right-wingers are spreading.

It isn't "deplatforming" if Hexbear has always been self-sufficient and started platforming with other instances.

It is, because they tried federating and they were denied access.

The platform was never there, lmao. It isn't deplatforming. Hexbear has a democratic federating process that takes longer.
