Hexbearian jerking themselves off about how valuable they are to the rest of the fediverse, suggests "performing a coup"
...by dunking on their user bases
They don't really bother to hide the fact that their primary reason for existing is trollng and brigading, do they?
Edit: Here is proof that "dunking" is their term for organised brigading, where a hexbear member is posting a comment in another instance on hexbear "if you wanna dunk".
They put the revolt in revolution... I tried having conversations with them, but the effort is not worth it.
I mean, did anyone doubt that? There was a post about the Ukranian war not long ago where almost every single comment belonged to hexbear users, but nah, they weren't brigading at all, it's just a coincidence that they were the only ones who had anything to say.
Is there a way to just block hexbear? Tankie nonsense almost kept me from trying Lemmy at all, and for the longest time, it’s been good. But recently it’s just tankies everywhere and I’m so over them.
Downside as a Lemmy.world user:
For the last chunk of time I have had zero clue the fuck everyone is talking about. Whats a "hexbear" and whats all the hubbub about?
Hexbear is blocked but all the people complaining about hexbear sure isnt lol
Not yet. What kbin has is domain blocking, for hiding posts that link to a particular domain. It's also buggy right now, and will just hide random stuff from you.
It’s frustrating to find a post leading to hexbear, question whether I accidentally unblocked hexbear, and find it still blocked. I appreciate the dev immeasurably, but dang it if I don’t occasionally think “darn that guy and his probably very adequate face.”
How do I do this? For some reason I'm unable to block individual hex users, and I'm honestly done enough with them to risk accidentally missing out on something else..
Some clients let you, 'connect for lemmy' lets you hide posts and comments from specific instances.
Bad take. If u block em nobody is pushing them back. We can't let them open the door of acceptability.
Using sex workers as a misogynist analogy for political affiliation is bad.
FTR, Putin and Russian Fascism is bad too.
I am talking about the sexualisation of the political work, as bad as it is, not the word. Isn't 'bitch' in that context a word heavily charged with sexualisation?
Ok let me try to break it down, and it's necessarily a two-pronged approach:
First, bitch means a female dog, which is then used for women in the sense of bad-tempered, or semi-affectionate as "my bitch". The one who gets fucked, less politely in the plural "bitches" among insecure men referring to women rolling their eyes at them.
Secondly, there's the meaning of to fuck itself, which can mean sexual intercourse but also things like to mess with, to fuck something up, etc. Very versatile.
Which then expands the meaning of bitch to also mean people that are subservient to you, that you can, precisely, fuck with, fuck over, and they can't even tell you to get fucked -- if they were in that position they wouldn't be your bitch.
Now that's the point where one could make connections to misogyny and even prison rape but a bitch is not necessarily, and not generally, unwilling to be fucked: The reason conservatives can't stop themselves from sucking Putin's dick isn't that he's so powerful they can't refuse, it's that they love him so much they even overcome their homophobia to do it. Minus the homophobia part just like your mom's reaction to my dick (SCNR).
In any case it's insulting to dogs to compare them with conservatives. They may be loyal to a fault and always looking for someone to look up to but unlike conservatives they do have a heart capable of love.
Lemmy is already like, 80% anti-capitalist.
I would say they're preaching to the choir here, but this is far more obnoxious than preaching.
The Bolshevists wanted to kill the Mensheviks, though they were both against the capitalists. It ain't all peace and kindness on the Left
Ive seen dozens of hexbear and lemmygrad users post unironically that lefties that dont support Lenin and killing any and all capitalists also deserve to be murdered.
Arrogant and self-important. Not sure why they think people want a bunch of assholes around.
Obviously you haven't heard about the GLORIOUS ideology of Marxism-Leninism. Allow me to educate you, comrade! /s
Hexbears users are all either trolls, pro russian and china fascism or both. They don't add any kind of value to the fediverse.
So weird how they're brigading ever other post mentioning them but remaining suspiciously quiet on this one.
Haha, nooo, not suspicious at all! Lemmy.world has hexbear defederated, they can't access this thread.
If only those MLs understood that by forcing themselves on the public square most people will reject them, and with them the concept of socialism as a whole...
I'm still not convinced that a sizeable chunk of tankies aren't right wing false flag types trying to make anything other than the capitalism we're all dealing with seem reasonable in comparison to the authoritarianism they peddle
Correct. Because that's exactly what they make people feel like and if we were actual idiots we would fall for it. Instead they're just insufferable trolls. Fuck them.
This is one brand of their typical users. The sooner everyone realizes they have nothing to offer, the better. Everyone needs to defed with hexbear.
What's really wild and astounding to me is any of them that might actually not be just trolls. Like, how do you not recognize you're the bad guys when everyone hates you for what you're doing to them?
I refuse to believe that people actually think like that. Hexbear is either filled with trolls, or it's a damn psyop.
The sad truth is that unlike reddit, Lemmy is seen as "too small" and "not worth astroturfing".
It is plainly not fitting the Russian model of spreading propaganda and recruitment, so we aren't going to get wumaos and similar paid shills here.
These are unfortunately 100% real delusional sad people
Loool fuck them and i am a commie Anarchist.
I wish Lemmy instances looked even a fraction as cool and Polished as hexbear though.
I am not sure i get your meaning?
If your implying that the feds are using funding to scan lemmy and list certain profiles then i am not worried. Anarchism is a genuine political stance and has been since the ancient greek. I am also a full on pacifist so good luck finding non existing dirt on me. I am no threat.
https://sh.itjust.works/comment/2901411 This guy explains pretty well. This is really typical kinda stuff for feds - disrupt, discredit, divide. Real leftist discourse disrupts power. This hexbear shit does nothing of the sort
While its hard not to take such comment as a wild conspiracy theory i do admit it makes some sense.
It fits very well with my feeling that both Russian and Chinese version ms off communism were part designed or influenced to act as a strawman to proof it leads to dictatorship. Conveniently always ignoring that the social classes never got abandoned.
That's very obviously trolling and shitposting, not sure why anyone would read that thinking it's an actual serious post
Can't make that assumption these days given that Trump, flat earthers and all the other bullshit we're dealing with that seemed like a joke until it wasn't
I can see how you'd think that if you're new to using computers and your WPM is like 10. Probably also why you think that was a serious post.
Hey aren't you the tard from earlier who defended ch*na? Hahaha ayy got the big boy boots on now huh cool rhetoric let me know where you learned those words aight have a good one mister pingpong
"mister pingpong"? Racist piece of shit shows his ass for everyone to see. Maybe one of your buddies will try to cover for you by rushing in to say "he meant fuck the CCP!!!!"
Absolutely shit posting, and pretty good work as shit posting goes. It's very strange that people seem to not pick up on that, it's not exactly subtle. "Perform a coup on other moderation teams""? Come on now, obvious shit post.
