Finally! This place just isn't the same without pics of pigs shitting on their own balls.

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 16 points 3 weeks ago

I tried to get AI to generate it for me but it's just not the same.

[-] Diva@lemmy.ml 62 points 3 weeks ago

It's about time they showed up, during trans day of visibility no less 😌

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 55 points 3 weeks ago

Move to an instance that defederates then, and move on? I'm not the biggest fan by any mean, but this kind of posts is just calling for some instance slapstick fights in the comments

For a list:

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 45 points 3 weeks ago

I get what you're saying, but this is mostly a joke.

There is some cool people there.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 weeks ago

If it's a joke, that's all good. It's just that some other people don't make jokes, they try to hide instance beefing messages in some memes, and that usually just brings negativity in the comments.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 20 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

There are a few users that come to mind with that, haha. Seems drama baiting is all they do, whether it be by making anti-Marxist memes to draw on drama, or by constantly reposting everything that gets posted on Lemmy.ml on other comms.

Seriously, 90% of it would probably die down if those accounts stopped. Especially ironic is that seemingly the most anti-Hexbear people are the least capable of describing their overall political views, which IMO explains the counter-productive behavior.

You're right, I dislike people who deliberately put instance beefing memes onto ml and grad just to annoy them, its like poking a hornets nest.

[-] LeninsOvaries@lemmy.cafe 13 points 3 weeks ago

I know, won't someone think of the poor tankies? Tankies are the most oppressed demographic on Lemmy. Not like those privileged trans people with their own whole instance

I just blocked the whole instance as soon as the option was implemented. There were few good posts/comunities from it, but overall better to block it whole.

[-] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 weeks ago

Somehow I can't block it using Voyager, the only instance appearing is test.hexbear.net. Any idea why?

Don't have a problem with what instance you're on as long as you're respectful I'll be respectful back

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 46 points 3 weeks ago

I totally agree. But that instance is slightly notorious for brigading threads.

Oh, my sweet summer child.

[-] Ilixtze@lemm.ee 30 points 3 weeks ago

Me; new here thinking "hexbear" is the furry server.... Oh...

Well I was half right

[-] LarmyOfLone@lemm.ee 27 points 3 weeks ago

However will lemmy deal with dissenting or socialist comments? Oh bless my pure centrist heart!

[-] atro_city@fedia.io 23 points 3 weeks ago

Never noticed they were gone. Just checked and my instance defederated from them. All is good in the world.

[-] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 13 points 3 weeks ago

Seriously.

Feels good man.

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 21 points 3 weeks ago

I'm glad my feed has been pretty drab with them gone

welcome back, glorious pigposters

[-] spacesatan@leminal.space 16 points 3 weeks ago

Lol at the 4 losers who downvoted every comment somebody from hexbear made. Just block the instance if you're this mad.

Pretty much all my experiences with that instance and similar ones have been disgusting.

Pushing people who post burning flags of a country and posts about it to be fully wiped out are accepted... Criticism regarding this gets your comment remove and a ban from the community.

I don't need that again. Where can I block this pseudo-left pro-authoritarian instance in Voyager?

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 weeks ago

You’re talking about Hexbear being pro-Palestinian and anti-Zionist as though they are anti-semetic and wish extermination on Jewish people. No, that’s not how Hexbear is, Hexbear is neither genocidal nor anti-semetic.

You might be talking about something else, but burning a flag of say, the US, does not mean Hexbear wants to slaughter everyone in the US. It means Hexbear stands against the US State and its ruling class, same with Israel and its genocidal ruling class.

Anti-Zionism, anti-fascism, and being pro-Palestine are all 3 Leftist stances.

Anyway, to block a community, you can do it in your settings. You will still see comments from users, just not comms.

I would love to get some context on this.

[-] shani66@ani.social 23 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

You know how there is a subset of leftists that just make everything worse? Up their own ass, stupid standards/priorities, generally annoying? That's the general opinion of hexbear. I haven't really interacted with the instance much, but that's what i gather from the rumors and the occasional wild hexbear comment, but i might just be primed to notice the bad comments because of the reputation. maybe a bit of a dirtier/less stringently controlled beehaw.

Edit: although as lemmy grows chuds will bitch about them just for not being right wing.

[-] LeninsOvaries@lemmy.cafe 9 points 3 weeks ago

You're obviously a CIA agent, liberal. Just because Hexbear supports AES states like Putin's Russia, you have the audacity to attack us. Where's the left unity, buttmuncher?

Hexbear.net is a Leftist instance with Communists and Anarchists. The bare minimum required is to be an anti-Capitalist of some sort there. As a consequence, some people take issue with that.

tankies and the leftists without the ability to have critical thought AND/OR nuanced conversation.

I’m sure some of them are nice people, but they aren’t sending their best.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 19 points 3 weeks ago

I find far more nuance on Hexbear regarding Leftist topics, at least in my experience. The average Hexbear user is more likely to have read theory, be it Anarchist or Marxist, than most other instances, so that baseline really helps elevate what kinds of conversations are had.
