      And yet they constantly whine about being defederated and demand to know what they’ve done, because clearly they’ve never done anything wrong ever.

      The answer to the question is simple, honestly. It’s because they’re shitty people.

        They’re intentionally shitty people. None of them have real political views because they are all still in middle or high school and don’t have to pay bills and don’t have real jobs. They’re entire purpose is to troll. They just get on here and look at what anyone is talking about and take the opposing stance to be pricks. Those people would defend any given serial killer or fascist war monger if it meant someone got upset.

          People can have “real political views” that are different from yours, y’know.

          I think they’re crazy as well, but thinking they’re all just teenagers who don’t know any better is naive. Especially if you look at the US, you should know it’s full of adults with really horrible political views.

            political views.

            The people you’re referring to are xenophobic and use the term “political” to mask their hatred. They wouldn’t know politics if it bit em in the ass (which it’s actively doing with every donation to the orange turd’s fund)

              I read your comment history. You come across as a young edgy contrarian. You seem arrogant and obnoxious, you act as if you’re intellectually superior and yet your comments lack any real substance. Your boorish metaphors are repetitive and trite, regurgitating the same theme endlessly, that you’re smarter than everyone else. It would be laughable if your fragile ego wasn’t so pathetic.

          Loving horror stories from the west the same way people here seem to love CHINA BAD stories? I visited hexbear a while back and maybe I just happened to miss all that sort of content, but I mostly just saw things like saying trans people have rights and that war is bad. Perhaps I have to actively seek it out, since I just looked at a few pages of posts sorted by active. After that visit, I’ve thought of people screaming about how awful hexbear is as similar to people who pushed the war on drugs and made ridiculous claims like smoking one joint will turn you into a good-for-nothing bum.

            I do wonder if the people who exaggerated and invent dramatic versions of what’s posted there realise we can just look at it ourselves and see they’re being silly? I guess what I really want to know is do they hope people won’t look or have they not looked and are just assuming it’s like that?

            Hexbear is glaringly a false ally to Trans people.

            In one breath the say they have rights and then in another they are with China that they should be killed.

            So you made claims which you backed up by citing a nazi sympathizer and now you’re mad because they called you out on it and hurt your feelings? Are you new to the internet? I ask because those are really mild responses and you seem like you’ve never encountered resistance in your life. This sums up the whole situation with hexbear nicely. Some people are incredibly mad that people on hexbear don’t share the same viewpoints as them and also those people on hexbear might be a little mean. I don’t see why lemmy.world defederated from them, but I suppose with enough crybabies, anything can be cancelled.

              I first cited a nazi sympathizer without noticing this. After they refused to accept this, I cited the UN instead. Guess what they said in the comments? That the oppression of Uyghurs is not genocide.

              The comments weren’t entirely mild either. Have you not seen those screenshots of comments using insults? Don’t you think it’s a red flag that such a large portion of hate speech on Lemmy is from Hexbear?

              If you like Hexbears, you should leave lemmy.world and go make an account on an instance that has not defederated from them.

                You cited the UN and made claims that the UN themselves didn’t make and you were called out on that too. Yes, I read your post, so don’t try to misrepresent what happened. What are you calling “hate speech”? You keep misrepresenting what others are saying and then you wonder why you get insulted. Either you’re completely clueless or you’re just pretending in a poor attempt at gaining sympathy. Either way, you could use the bluntness.

                I had made an account on lemm.ee a few days ago, actually. Unlike you, however, I’m not obsessed with hexbear and don’t feel the need to go out of my way to interact with that instance (have nothing against them, just haven’t gotten around to it).

          The comment I responded to was responding to nothing but the article itself, proposing that there are supposedly entire communities that just loves hearing about children getting killed. Essentially what you’re claiming is that the mere mention of something means it must be real. If I spend my time entering every post that mentions forests to talk about bigfoot, steering the conversation in that direction, does that mean bigfoot exists?
