The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear and usually follow it up with a ban. It’s absolutely clear what is happening and it shouldn’t be allowed to continue.

I blacked out irrelevant information.
Lmao I’ve also been banned by rimjob from World News over the stupidest shit. And yes, he did cite some bullshit even thought I was clearly within the rules and arguing in good faith. How dare someone stand their ground against Bruce Almighty from World News! Not surprised.
I had a bunch of reasonable posts deleted from World News. I just blocked it but defederating would be way better because then we can rebuild a healthier news community somewhere else.
This is less about the instance as a whole. The !worldnews@lemmy.ml mods are notoriously terrible. It’s best to just avoid the community altogether.
Instead of defederating all of lemmy.ml, just blocking that one comm could be an option
While I agree that hexbear generally sucks, they and I do at least have an enemy in common. That ban is not so undeserved as I was led to expect.
Is your common enemy the People? Because Hexbear promotes authoritarianism and genocide denial.
Tankies say all kinds of stupid things, but even if we grant the thus-far unproven assumption that the person being addressed there is among them, when they’re telling nazis to fuck off that is not an appropriate moment to try and start a pointless fight by asserting that they’re wrong about every single thing.
It’s not about being wrong or right, it’s that their instance culture is aggressive, immature and arrogant from what I’ve seen. Those meme threads are done obnoxious circlejerks, dear god, I hope they’ve grown out of that at least.
Being polite about politics never won shit for anyone.
Yeah, hexbear people actually defend my rights as a human being while a lot of other communities let Nazis freely JAQ away threads into oblivion
Just as long as you’re not Ukrainian, Tibetan, or Uyghur or else they’ll defend ending your life as a human being.
Idk there’s the dunk tank but apart from that CPT and trans rights subs seem decent
So what? It’s no different from lemmy.world where the vast majority of users pay Palestinians lip service but get buttmad at the suggestion of holding the US government accountable for funding Israel, only because the man in office is their guy. You all are more than happy to sacrifice a few tens of thousands of Palestinians if it means you don’t have to criticize dear leader.
Most of you are gigantic hypocrites on the topic of genocide.
🥱
Don’t forget they openly root for Hamas, which will do way worse than just kill people for being queer.
ok but do you condemn the idf
Yes. See, that wasn’t hard, was it?
With this you’re proving that you are the fascist here who can’t tolerate anyone who doesn’t think like you and who will resort to the most authoritarian measures to remove the people you hate from your spaces.
Yeah… at this point I find insufferable liberals that don’t understand the difference between tankies and fascists nauseating enough to ban you on sight, too.
Yeah that coat of red paint is definitely more stylish
I don’t know what you all are whining about - tankies are really just liberals who have given up on any pretense of being pro-democratic. After all… isn’t Lenin’s “state capitalism” just another way of preserving your precious status quo?
