Nah I get posts removed and banned from big subs like Political Memes all the time. No criticizing the Left or questioning why they seem to always exclusively blame literally everything on Democrats.

I assume the right-wing propaganda planners have decided they need to counter something I said

Since there’s no serious answer: hexbear is a highly toxic instance that has been defederated by most other instances. However, their users will keep tabs on what’s said on other instances, and they’ll occasionally show up en masse with alt accounts to attack something that particularly enraged them.

Many of them are…not quite mentally stable.

They’re probably the single largest base of tankie support. For them, America = bad, and anyone opposed to America = good. They pretend to care about communism etc but they’re really just anti-American. Saying anything negative about China gets you instantly banned.

Are you literally claiming hexbear doesn’t exist?

That’s a new one

We have very different lemmy experiences

Only the chosen few businesses, and entirely at the whims of the dictator. Your CEO pisses off the leader, your business goes bye bye.

There’s GOTTA be a way to combine liquid cooling of server racks and radiators for home heating

We use electricity to cool down one thing while we use electricity to heat up a different thing. Makes no sense.

And propaganda. LOTS of propaganda.

Only because he fucked up and went after the Mouse lol

Mouse will fuck you up

Companies don’t want fascism, they just want tax breaks. Civil war and dictatorships are bad for business.

My point was that needing more people is the root issue. So while I didn’t explicitly make your point, I do agree.

That’s fair. But I think that’s kind of what I’m doing by combating the trolls. “Some of these people spout bullshit, but they get called out by the community”.

Linux doesn’t work for me

Depends on how you engage. If you recognize a troll, don’t fall for the sealioning. Just call them names and make fun of them until they run away.

Yeah, but it’s important to refute their bullshit if we want the fediverse to get better.

Subscribed! Great catchall community.

You’ve convinced me to try mbin. I had a kbin account and I really liked it, but federation with lemmy was soooo slow.

I see em alllll the time. But I don’t block anyone, ever.

I guess that’s a fair point, but I’d rather shoot for what’s good instead of settle for “better than terrible”.

One problem is we get people from ml posting on .world and other sane instances.
