Thank god. I’ve been annoyed by their toxic nonsense.
This is like when the one insufferable dude at a party leaves on his own, and now the host doesn’t have to say something.
Deplorables
Nah. Just children and shillls
They aren’t deplorables.
They were toxic and obnoxious.
absolutely!
but deplorables refers to homophobes
Eh never heard that as a definition.
Never heard it either. In French, déplorable may be a synonym for pathetic.
Not what the definition means and they are also homophobes and transphobes.
Lol wtf?
One of them sent me a private message:
your grandfather was a nazi scumfuck that deserves to die
Nice people.
And my grandfather was not German, he lived in an actual communist country and hated it.
im very sorry to hear that. Can you share that message? Like a screenshot?
But it’s fine, it’s not my first time on the internet.
they always forget that the soviet union was perfectly fine with nazi germany until nazi germany didn’t share poland

Well, the fact that she thinks “trans lesbians from the USA” would not be sent to a gulag shows how smart she is.
Never had the trash take itself out before. Feels good.
In Communist China, trash takes out you
Everyone that disagrees with them is a Nazi yet they actively deny the ongoing genocide of Uyghers.
Everyone who disagrees with them is a transphobe yet they had several posts agreeing with China’s ban on Trans people, sterilization and murder.
Yeah I don’t get that? Why are they constantly complaining about transphobia all the time? Yet I never see any.
Because it’s simply a cudgel to use against other sections of the left "Oh you haven’t completely purged any and all bigotry from your movement? Guess we’re gonna have to act smug and call you a piece of shit. "
And then “No no no, please don’t look at Marxist Leninists track record on LGBT rights” or “No way, there’s no genocide in Xinjiang”
nothing makes sense or is consistent in their beliefs, it’s a miracle they don’t go into a spasm feom cognitive dissonance
They’re basically using Fox new republican logic of screaming about how everyone who doesn’t agree with them is persecuting them and is a bigot about spins wheel of things they like to call people.

tbf I do definitely see transphobia pop up around the Fediverse, it’s just generally downvoted.
So calling out tankies for their dictatorship support and defense of genocides made us the Nazis?
Sure, Jan.
Heh, good riddance. They’re SUPER fucking annoying, and I’ve seen pretty much zero examples of their userbase contributing in a meaningfully positive way to discussions on any instance, including their own.
All I ever get from their instance are posts about them complaining about other instances complaining about them. Like damn, take a hint you guys.
I have met about 3 normal reasonable people there, everyone else I’ve seen just barges in to every conversation and says meaningless annoying nonsense.
Can we still follow through with defederating them? This is definitely a ploy so they can start back up whenever they want.
The admins don’t have plans on defederating.
Yah, saw that they locked down your vote on that, then made some sort of “why can’t we all just get along” comment to rub it in.
And said something about the admin over there trying to work along with them on reducing the dunking. Yet that same admin is in another thread on hexbear assuring people that they are certainly not trying to reduce dunking in other servers, and saying basically “go for it”.
Pretty silly. Glad my server has defed from the shitbirds.
For anyone curious about what that admin said.
I just looked through their profile and couldn’t find that comment. Did they delete it or something?
Most likely. Can’t leave evidence of enabling shitty behaviour. This is a screencap from a thread where that admin was telling them to stop flooding meta posts on other instances that were considering defederating from them. I think it was Blahaj or Beehaw. One of those.
THanks, I had no idea how to find that again.
Yeah, not really the best way
Seems really fishy to me. TheDude defederated from Lemmygrad with zero community input, based on his own personal convictions. Now the admin team agrees to let in a rabid userbase of tankies, imaqtpie calls them a “valuable asset” in response to calls for defederation, and they actively get in the way of our attempts to organize a discussion/vote to defederate. Things feel different and not in a good way.
Unfortunately
Am I reading this right that Hexbear is defederating with sh.itjust.works?
I’m pleased to hear the good news.
Lol this is the second time in a month they’ve done the “you can’t fire me I quit” thing
and it won’t be the last :(
Fucking lmao. Good riddance. This is at least the second time they’ve bailed before their shitty deeds can get them kicked out.
really doesn’t take much.
it’s so disheartening, like legitimately, how are these guys gonna cancel capitalism and destroy the west when they need to flee back to their safespace on the fucking internet.
“Wh-what do you mean people are shitty to us when we’re shitty to them?? This is [insert irrelevant accusation of bigotry here]! Critical support for Comrade Xi’s Concentration Camps!”
People who are so eager to dish it often can’t take it. Even in milder forms than the 4chan-esque trolling Hexbears use, like the horrible personal attack that is [checks notes] disputing that concentration camps are good.
Don’t forget how Rrracist the community icon is. How dare we!
My God, if only we had taken our mockery of Comrade Xi from someone unproblematic, like Chinese nationals!
I read 20 mins ago someone from hexbear complaining that calling Xi Winnie is racist because Winnie is yellow and Xi Chinese. Meanwhile, the meme was born in china, from chinese people. The west just adopted the icon that China’s govenment banned in china, after its own citizens popularized it.
SOOOoo it must be racist yeah /s
they already got booted from most instances I use
Lol, I knew they’d run away like the buncha pussies they are. Glad they aren’t going to show up en mass anymore and derail threads with their bitching.
I only clicked on a few of their posts. One was literally a bunch of people saying Biden is a pussy for not drone striking 80k people at burning man. For people who really eschew civility like that they seem really sensitive in this post.
Delicate internet bullies.
Darvo.

I don’t know how someone posts something that aggressively asshole-ish and then doesn’t understand why everyone defederates them.
It doesn’t kill to be at least slightly polite to people.
FYI, these super wide screenshots of text make it difficult to read on small/narrow screens (anyone using lemmy on their phone?)
Yeah impossible to read on jerboah - doesn’t allow pic zoom (on my phone anyway)
Even if there is an option to zoom, it’s difficult because to read the text you have to scroll sideways in small steps for each line
