You're viewing a single thread.
I knew from reading the headline that Hexbear's horde of mouthbreathers would show up to brigade and spread their propaganda. Sure enough, here we are
Edit: You guys really are just proving my point lmao
Hexbear users rushing to bombard this comment with image reactions to say they're not brigading
You're exactly correct! Lmao
I play "count the fallacies" with the comments. So far I've seen: ad homonim; what-about-ism; strawman ; appeal to popularity ; appeal to authority ; hasty generalization / ecological fallacy
I get bored well before I stop counting
Lol I don't even bother with reading anything they say at all. I just block anyone who's on Hexbear, I must have half the instance blocked. And my experience browsing Lemmy has been so much better for it!
Who's Hexbear?
It's not a who, it's an instance: hexbear.net. It's also full of pro-Russia tankies.
Uh… Is there a reason why I’ve never heard of this?
They were not federated before. They did around 9 days ago.
They only were recently federated, and got defederated from some large instances like lemmy.world for their explicit intent to brigade other instances and communities to spread their "anti-liberal" nonsense.
Russian troll farms have hit lemmy = lemmy has made it to the social media big leagues now!
When you've hit the lemmyverse
checks notes
Three years ago... Huh.
Crying about "tankies" is just calling everything "woke" with extra steps. Not everyone there automatically supports NATO/Ukraine but it's far from what you describe.
There are still significant numbers of people denying the genocide currently happening and actively rooting for the invaders, which is why I pointed it out. There's a reason they have been defederated by so many large instances. This has nothing to do at all with anything "woke" and I don't see why you'd even bring it up.
Edit: I just had a look at their frontpage and the first post there is about how the "western MSM" lied about the counteroffensive and how "Stalin shouldn't have stopped at Berlin". Yeah, alright. lmao
Republican: "Everything to the left of me is woke."
Republican pretending to be liberal online: "Everything to the left of me is tankie."
At the end of the day it's a word that can mean anything you want, and is only useful as a tactic to divide resistance against right wingers.
Very cool that the moment someone says "brigading" I can look at their profile and see, yup they joined in June. Wonder why that is 🤔
I've been interacting with them recently to see what they are all about and lmao I don't think I've ever had a dumber discussion in my life. Truly they are uniquely stupid.
My cats have learned the wirr motor sound of the feeder means food. So they'll run from whereever in the house at an motor sound. Suddenly like "it's food time right? Right? But the noise means food...." Regardless of any further context.
Same same but different with hexbear.
