I'm posting because originally when I was looking to create a Lemmy account I came across Hexbear. I read the code of conduct and TOS and to me it seemed like a great fit for me. However, after creating an account there, it seems pretty defederated.
Anyway I was curious on the happenings over there, because they have some cute custom emojis over there... but if there's a reason they're so defederated, I might just pretend i never made an account there
EDIT: omg I just found out this instance has cute blob emojis too :3
I'm not trans so I never had reason to go down this particular rabbithole, but I remember when I first I joined the platform there was some kind of commotion around Hexbear and nobody wanting to be federated with em because of their supposedly weird tankie politics. I've never seen any tangible evidence of this (insert lack of rabbithole following here), but reading the comments, there seems to be two stories and now I'm really curious what you find out here.
I'll report back with my findings!
Did a little spelunking and investigating, kinda leaning towards them all being tankies. At least in the few things I glanced at, there wasn't anything extreme or over-the-top, but they also seemed quite happy to ban a user for very minor criticisms of the Orange Cunt and the instance mods also mod a looot of communism and CCP related communities, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Toying with making an account and posting a certain controversial image just to see what happens
Which user?
Could it be that they are communists, leftists (i.e. anti-capitalist)... as they declared themselves?
Since you are being vauge, I'm not sure which one you are talking about. But either you will be banned, probably for racism (implying a chinese person is yellow), or you will be given books and links to read/watch up on.
It's not particularly hard to guess what image I'm referring to given the context of the thread, lol
Hint: It was taken in 1989
