A Chicago-area landlord has been arrested and charged with murder and hate crimes after authorities said he stabbed and killed a 6-year-old boy and seriously wounded his mother, allegedly because the tenants are Muslim.
What the fuck is it with all these comments taking the horrific news of a 6 year old being stabbed 26 times in a hate crime… and they respond with some witty “gotcha” comments against the other side? Like am I crazy? Did anyone else get that vibe?
Anyway so…
On Saturday, Israel’s military
Ah. Just when I was wondering why they even bothered to write and publish this tragedy that so often gets ignored … yes that’s right! That shit is trending!
I’m sure a good portion of them are from the Hexbear community that many have defederated from. I’m glad for defederation because I don’t have to see their toxic, disrespectful comments. People who want to leave defederation up to individuals must not be familiar with the Paradox of Tolerance.
Except other instances don’t allow hate speech and behavior like Hexbear admins do. Their whole instance is dedicated to trolling and spreading hate and disinformation. So they really can’t just go anywhere and act like they do.
That’s not gonna stop them. They can arbitrarily make as many accounts as they need to do it, and just bounce from account to account one comment at a time if necessary.
There’s a finite number of servers though that they can create accounts on.
The admins of those servers would notice someone spamming account creations just to make comments and bypass bans.
What you’re describing is not a federation issue, it’s a server admin issue.
If they have that much spare time then let them. They can rule over lemmy and the rest of us get to enjoy the actual world while they’re tied up screaming at their keyboards.
I usually agree with this sentiment, but I honestly think Hexbear users have had better takes than the other average user on this. It’s generally not the hexbear users I see trying to justify violence in this case. Mostly they’re against it. I have plenty of issues with hexbear, but at least be accurate with criticism.
Lol. Just because I defend them once after critiquing them dozens of times probably, you tell me to go there. You’re as bad as they are.
My instance isn’t defederated from them though so I’d have no reason to. I wouldn’t care if it were defederated really because generally they’re annoying assholes. I guess you guys have that in common.
Check my comment history. I’ve had many arguments with them. I’m not from hexbear, but in this one situation they have been mostly better than the average Lemmy user from what I’ve seen. They’re almost all anti-violence in this situation in my experience, though some are more violently anti-Zionist which is pretty fair considering how many die because the Zionists can do it without consequences.

I think I fucking hate the internet now.

A bad and broken system isn’t an excuse for doing nothing about a problem.
Defederation is the best option available.
Much better than requiring individuals to block toxic instances.

People who don’t have skin in the game often like to point out the facts, or play devil’s advocate.

Yep, the same thing happened on Reddit. Account banned? Make a new one.

Then join their server so sane people can be spared from you both

I switched servers to see less of them
Nice try. Back to Hexbear with you.

They’re not anti violence. They’re anti self defense by groups they don’t care about.
They call for nuking western whites (that is genocide). Don’t defend those hypocritical twats, they just want to kill anyone who disagrees.
