Is it bots? Are those humans whos mission is to cause chaos? Is the weird behaviour caused by the creation of the concept of lemmy?

Somebody please explain to me wtf is going on.

They answer destructive comments, assuming shit, demanding shit. Are they trolls?

Are they being paid for causing chaos? It’s insane

    Thankfully those of us on world have not had to deal with them for the better part of a year.

    .world was never federated with hexbear, .world defederated “preemptively, as a last resort”

    This perception is common on .world because some liberals have been lying about hexbear to encourage censoring the left even before then.

      I must have misremembered lemmygrad then. Same difference. I’ve encountered hexbears on other servers. It’s one of many reasons I don’t log into Midwest.social for instance. Well more that their hardware is overloaded. But federation with grad and hex is still a good reason.

      Quoting your other comment:

      China is the largest economy in the world and has brought nearly a billion people out of poverty. Within a single lifetime, the USSR went from peasant farmers experiencing regular famine to putting people in space. And then capitalism brought back famine in the 90s. Cuba has a longer life expectancy than America.

      If it talks like a tankie and quacks like a tankie…

      For all you people out there in TV land, this user is a serial shitposter who deliberately misinterprets everything they read. Very “oh you like waffles? Just admit you hate pancakes” behavior. It goes without saying that this interpretation is disingenuous at best.

        If the opposition has inconvenient facts, just tell the audience opposition is an asshole you shouldn’t listen to.

          I already identified your MO, I don’t need you to describe it to me. Take your L and begone, you bother me.

        I’m not sure if the “this interpretation” reference is about the “preemptive defederation as a last resort” or the “lying” bit, but the first doesn’t need an interpretation because it was stated in the post:

        Defederation should only be considered as a last resort. However, based on their comments and behavior, no positive outcomes can be expected. We made the decision to preemptively defederate from Hexbear for these reasons.

        The “lying” bit… I’m not sure where that comes from. It’s not the best “informed rhetoric,” that’s for sure.

          The most obvious lie being claiming that hexbear was federated with lemmy.world and were just so awful they had to be defederated.

      Hahahaha, many of us have had first hand experience of hex - they attack people for the littlest ring, insult, denigrate, etc.

      So stop your gaslighting.

        What little thing are you being attacked for? The worst I’ve experienced was being called an atlanticist in a discussion on North Korean military preparedness.
