I just saw my first Hexbear post, and I am not used to seeing this level of stupid. I don’t want to see any more of it.

        sarcasm

        edit: if you dig deeper (and I don’t blame you if you don’t), you’ll find a lot more than just annoying posts over there. It’s full of right wing propaganda

          I am aware of that from casual statements in lemmy.world. Today is the first time I actually saw it for myself though, and jesus…

            If you think these copypasta pro-Russia trolls are actually “leftist,” boy do I have a bridge to sell you.

              I’m sorry that you fell for whatever it was you saw. It’s okay to be gullible.

              On the other hand, it’s really easy to simply ignore posts. I promise, you don’t have to read every single one that shows up on All

          I’m still not sure I understand the benefits of

          • hating an entire country over hating one of its citizens
          • hating an entire instance instead of hating one of its communities (hating a community or a specific user does make complete sense tho)

            Those two aren’t in any way comparable. You don’t choose what country you’re born in. You DO choose which instance to be a part of.

              Sorry. I meant that the community I want to follow didn’t choose the idiot vandals who joined their instance and which caused my home instance to shut off access to their entire instance.

              An instance-wide block of an entire other instance feels like cutting out your eyes instead of closing the curtains to me.
