I can't begin to imagine what it must have been like for you un-hexed folks having to deal with the brain rot while we were in a state of utter calm and unruffled repose. 
(If you ignore the bizarre struggle sessions)

I was on db0 and mander for a while, keep coming back because of the rampant liberalism everywhere else (not in those two instances, necessarily; they're actually both pretty great, but by being federated to almost everyone, it really opens you up to a lot of bullshit)
lemmy.world and a few other instances are getting pretty bad with the anti-communist hysteria and rampant liberalism lately. It seems like liberals from Reddit end up at .world mostly. There's been a huge uptick in posts calling lemmy and hexbear users tankies, and stoking hate and division against leftist communities. It sucks, because up until a few months ago the fediverse was mostly chill about that kind of reddit-esque fearmongering against leftists.
acab includes the red pikmin

Lemmy.ml was constant struggle sessions, lol
any highlights?
It's all the usual stuff, but there was a big influx of European nationalists from Reddit, which is somewhat different from the typical USian liberalism
What happened there??
there was a "buy european" trend in the euro subs and since reddit is USA made and Lemmy EU made plus a new reddit crackdown that made a bunch of people migrate to lemmy
Does Lemmy have it's own EU instance now?
Nope, only some country instances
Yeah I noticed that when we refederated lol
Yep, they're somehow even more smug.
The bear hibernates, but spring always wakes her up 
Ooh! We should maybe defederate every winter
That would actually be a fucking great bit.
Each spring we can get to other instances and just post
You could also make an account here. No hex withdrawal anymore. Just saying... 
I was getting the shakes and had to get my slop 
You deserve it, considering the amount of slop that you produced on your other account. 
I do like a roll in the mud sometimes, local hexbear has been a nice mental health break 
unbearable
almost like they were missing a bear of some kind... 
Absence makes the heart grow communister
Gonna echo other comrades and say join us!
It's a nice cozy space free from liberalism (most of the time) for when you don't want to have your feed flush with the worst reddit-tier memes and nato circlejerking in places like .world etc
hello
You could join
kept ya waiting, huh? 
Good to see you, too, comrade
I may take issue with 15-20% of what’s considered mainstream on this instance, but fucking hell, you guys are the actual only legitimately funny people on here. The CTH memes hit like nothing else.
Especially as the IDF started bombing within (distant! Bombs are loud!) earshot again, the latest big wave of Reddit refugees on .world are trying to work through their programming to both-sides obvious crimes. It’s a relief to see people from all over being extremely understanding of the situation.
Both sides of one side that drops bombs and one that gets the bomb dropped on.
We went on vacation to Wokeopolis. We came back with fresh, seething hatred for capitalism.
Who farted
The bear is back! 
Nice to see you again!
