I don’t like to see so many political posts in all and so many weird images in comment sections

    I made a post like this on my old instance’s main community and it got flooded by 400+ hexbear comments telling me how stupid I am. No, the only real solution is to make a new account on an instance that’s defederated. Good luck.

      What instances would you recommend? I don’t really want to leave mine since I’ve been on it for awhile but if it gets too annoying I might want to

        Blahaj.zone is defederated (hexbear did it first surprisingly). It’s a very LGBTQ+ oriented place so I’m not sure it’s your cup of tea

          It seems like a very nice place, I’ll be sure to check it out some more

            I find that interesting because i am banned from blahaj for being a conservative but hexbears swear im a white liberal. I would have thought hexbears and blahaj would get along nicely

              When they call you a liberal, they’re referring to the classical meaning of the term rather than the newer definitions.

                I think you’re giving them too much credit. They’re just trolling and being very annoying.

                  I only started trolling because of their relentless abuse. I learned they dont know how to respond if you act stupid and I found that funny

                They are saying I advocate free market and laissez-faire economics, civil liberties under the rule of law, with special emphasis on individual autonomy, limited government, economic freedom, political freedom and freedom of speech. Is that right? As opposed to what

                  I think commenter above means, as opposed to the US-american re-definition of liberal = “Democrat”, somehow. Since the Trump party is absolutist leaning, this makes sense fr them … somehow.

                Sorry you are right. I only associate 196 with blahaj so me being banned there makes me not have any reason to be at blahaj. I was one of the lucky few that was given a 2 year ban. The reason was “stirring up trouble tankie style”

        I like lemmy.ca pretty well. I’ve just recently learned that lemmy.world is defederated, but they’re already one of the biggest instances. All I did was browse https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list, sorted by usage and skipped the top few entries, and checked each instance to see if they’d defederated. I tried to go smaller than lemmy.ca but I got bored lol
