Has anyone else noticed how prevalent Hexbear posters have suddenly become? Maybe sometime last week I noticed nearly every political post had at least one long thread of Hexbear users that do nothing but repeat CCP talking points while waving anyway anything even remotely reliable as Western propaganda. That or getting all excited about trolled libs. The way they tell it, you’d think everything from DW, to Fox, to Propublica, to straight up AP News articles, are all written by the same people.
Not to mention, their info on the Fediverse observer is either straight up wrong or there’s some serious botting going on. According to that, the instance is less than a month old, yet somehow they already have one of the largest, most active userbases, along with far and away the most comments of any instance.
Seems to me like Lemmygrad on steroids. Considering we defederated from them, seems like a no-brainer to block Hexbear as well.
So glad this thread could become such a perfect microcosm of why we need to defederate.
Bullshit
This post appeared on my feed. That’s the only reason I’m here. Get used to not being popular. This isn’t Reddit. No one is going to protect you from not encountering leftists.
Of course it did…
Coping that your instance isn’t as active as ours lol
I don’t care how active my instance is, I’ll probably move to another one soon anyway. I just hate authoritarian propaganda.
bro the United States has the largest prison population in the world and regularly overthrows countries they don’t like, the US is by far the most authoritarian country in the world by any sensible definition
I thought Hexbear users didn’t assume gender.
Do you even look up what these words mean? The US has some considerable authoritarian issues, but it’s way more democratic than many other countries.
Also why are we suddenly talking about the US, are you just reading from the script or what?
