The rhetoric and goal of Hexbar are clear based on their announcement: to “dismantle western propaganda” and "demolish organizations such as NATO” shows that Hexbar has no intention of "respecting the rules of the community instance in which they are posting/commenting.” It’s to push their beliefs and ideology.
lol. lmao even
defederating from nazi instance: takes forever
defederating from socialist instance: does it before federation even starts
just do :liberals: and it’s that guy in the aliens meme thanks i did all the work for you as an Ideas Guy that’ll be $100,000 a year thanks
several concerning statements, as highlighted below:
dismantle western propaganda
lmao telling on themselves.
I’ll copy what I told their admin:
Like honestly this is kinda gross, they [hexbear admins] specifically try and smooth things out and make things easier for your [.world] admins so you don’t have to deal with a flood of hexbear users spamming PPB everywhere and you just use it as evidence to defederate lol
Moralists don’t really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child’s toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn’t change – not even incremental change. It is control. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Coalition airships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.
Levels of Liberalism even Mao couldn’t comprehend.
What a terrible justification. So their reason for defederating isn’t hate speech or anything truly problematic, but because… We’re a socialist instance with socialist opinions? So it really is just anti-socialism then? It’s also amusing seeing people accuse Hexbear of being an echo chamber, yet it’s the lemmy.world admins going against their own users to preemptively defederate instances on shaky ideological grounds? Not only is Hexbear NOT doing this, but admins here even made a post encouraging people to act in good faith and follow the rules of other instances. Which instance is the real echo chamber here? Sure looks like lemmy.world.
Anyways, we have better emotes, better posts, cooler users, and a real community that helps people and does good things. If you’re a lemmy.world user reading this, make an account here and come on over. I’ve been on this site awhile now, and it’s actually quite nice.
A spectre is haunting Europe — the spectre of communism. All the powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: Pope and Tsar, Metternich and Guizot, French Radicals and German police-spies.
Where is the party in opposition that has not been decried as communistic by its opponents in power? Where is the opposition that has not hurled back the branding reproach of communism, against the more advanced opposition parties, as well as against its reactionary adversaries?
Two things result from this fact:
I. Communism is already acknowledged by all European powers to be itself a power.
II. It is high time that Communists should openly, in the face of the whole world, publish their views, their aims, their tendencies, and meet this nursery tale of the Spectre of Communism with a manifesto of the party itself.
