It is pretty unique to hexbear and .ml on Lemmy from what I've seen. Even if what you just said was true (it's not) that doesn't excuse it

That's hard to believe when it's basically almost the only thing (and other serious and aggressive trolling and not trolling.) I've not seen any calm reasonable and rational responses from hexbear users until this post threatening to get rid of them

While I have not seen Uyghur genocide denial there

It's there

It's quite disingenuous to say defederating because of political differences. It because you guys are intolerable and intolerant trolls who go on the attack at the drop of a hat at every opportunity. I haven't seen hexbear ever participate in good faith outside of this very thread. You're only nice and capable of calm, rational, reasoned discussion when you're being threatened with consequences. Ironically a luxury that communist nations would not provide you with.

Yea, it feels like 4chan suddenly saw the light and then turned far-left all at once

Exactly this. They're running around spewing barely-sensical insults acting like they're dunking on people, but all their really doing is turning off anyone who was ever possibly sympathetic to their cause. And are completely un-informed on top of that

They're laughable. I've gotten like 30 replies to 1 comment and then they say "You seem mad" Yes....I'm the mad one. 🙄

No it's when there's mysteriously dozens of comments just magically showing up that are contrary to the vastly popular opinion on only one contentious issue, that serve the best interests of an entity with the time, resources to try to sway public opinion through fake grassroots posting. Also that entity has a fragile ego and a long history of online manipulation.......oh and also coincidentally they are all coming from the same server

Possibly, I didn't look where they're all from, nor do I know what hexbear is or why it's significant. Sounds like some kind of intra-Lemmy drama which I'm not too interested in. Just noticed a fair amount, lets say........not totally organic, seemingly agenda pushing comments.

Edit: Forget my previous comment. I now see the problem with Hexbear.

To make you angry

Tencent owns sizeable pieces (and outright owns) of more companies than you can imagine.

Lots of suspicious comments in this thread. Seems like political astro-turfing has already arrived on Lemmy

I've literally never once seen porn on Lemmy despite everyone constantly talking about it.
