This is an instance we have never federated making a defederation post about us. You can search the instances page, we've never linked with a kbin instance. we've never interacted with kbin users. we don't even have to dunk on them for our posting power to overwhelm.
It's endlessly hilarious to me how utterly terrified liberals are of a highly-active explicitly-leftist forum that they're powerless to shut down. They simply don't know how to handle us, and it breaks their brains.
Liberals screaming and whining day and night about Jorge Waroll 1980 and demanding censorship of political opponents in the same breath
I’ve seen their brigading on lemmy communities before. They will also serial downvote anything they don’t like.
We are so back...?
They will also serial downvote anything they don’t like.
lmao
Reality can be whatever I want.
also bring back downvotes but only for federated servers
Brigading is when people I don’t like have a say in something
Kbin doesn't comply as well with ActivityPub standards, and it shows posts and comments from Hexbear, which Kbin users comment on and reply to.
Here's an example of a Kbin user commenting on a Hexbear post. But that kbin.social comment doesn't show up on lemmy.ml, because, after all, Hexbear doesn't federate with kbin.social.
So Kbin users are replying to Hexbear, maybe with the intent of rebutting, and Hexbear users never respond. If I were a lib, I'd think I won an argument or something
I really wish there was a bot or something to grab all the defedded libs responses to stuff here. That could be quality dunk tank material.
AUTOMATE THE SLOP
I'm still trying to figure out why anyone would start a brand new web service project in PHP of all languages in 2021.
The only thing worse than starting a PHP project in 2021 is starting a PHP project any time before 2021. I work in PHP at work and the code we’re writing today is night and day compared to the deranged shit that’s in some of our legacy services. And compared to the JavaScript framework hype train (or maintaining ancient jQuery) I can definitely see why someone would start a greenfield PHP+HTMX project today.
That said, I’ve been starting hobby projects with Go+HTMX for about a month and that’s been pretty fun
this is what the. hex bear wants. we cannot link the Goulash Arch-pelican at them.. 1987 
I didn't realize they can see us. That's hilarious.
More proof that our mod policy stays winning
Sounds like we should make some posts making fun of them and see if they can respond
Mamma jammin spectre of hexbear all up in their instances.
Imagine being this much of a fucking loser
Liberalism takes hold in the human mind as a defense mechanism against feeling helpless.
We're definitely triggering to most libs. Probably to a degree far worse than conservatives.
Imagine you have this highly idealized worldview that paints politics as a grand battle between good and evil. You aren't content with the state of things, but shit wouldn't be so bad if more people would just 
. You want nothing more than for the right combination of candidates & slogans to appear to allow fixing things.
Then some fucking guy comes along and tells you the conditions in your perfect storm political scenario are entirely insufficient at achieving your goals. He says not only that your sole mechanism for exerting influence over the world is worthless, but also achieving your goals is dependent on subverting that mechanism entirely.
That must feel insanely uncomfortable. Virgin minds will ferociously resist accepting the helplessness without an alternative mechanism to provide that hope.
Hence why we must be Russians or crypto fash or something. Conceding any of our points means introducing those feelings of helplessness. It is simply safer for one's ego to believe we're incognito bad guys™ than accept that people who want the same ends don't believe in the holy means.
We literally can't even downvote it it's just "I mean I could post there but they'd all yell at me about why I'm wrong so I'll just reassure myself I'm right"
Kbin sucks and is full of people who were mostly just scared of the Lemmy devs for being communists
aawww that's so cute
Getting very "antifa is going to come to your suburban neighborhood and steal your flatscreen" vibes from this.
It's because I'm going to do exactly that
OUR flatscreen. 
We should federate with them so we can then defederate with them.
Just in time for Federation Friday.
Even within the sanctity of their own homes they live in fear. The vicious sounds of dunks from a bygone era faintly echoing through each room. Kbin users are living a nightmare brought upon them by the merciless brutality of the hexbear posters. No matter where they run to, where they hide to, there is no where that the dunks do not plague their once joyous minds.
Hexbear killed a bajillion posters. It's why Lemmy's active numbers are going down
The so-called "freedom fighters", defenders of "democracy" and the right to free expression are so frightened that they shit in their pants to see people with an opinion that diverge from hegemony.
Lmao what absolute losers 
People can't be this dumb on God. This has to be some boomer cop just running a one click AI from their FBI buddy, right???
We should federate with them so they can defederate with us. It’s only fair.
Fr though, if their mods will actually moderate their inevitable stalking and harassment it would be good to stretch out and add another “major” instance to the commie bloc.
Idk how you warn them about that though. “Hey, otherwise upstanding members of your community are gonna go nuts and start looking for trouble with our users. If you’re willing to deal with that, let’s be friends.”
lol
It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
