Hexbear users' OFFICIAL statement on the preemptive defederation of lemmy.world from hexbear.net
Jealous?
:::You're viewing a single thread.
Honestly if the result of the federation is just every lib instance defederating and having to write one of these "it's not for ideological reasons, it's just that supporting NATO is mandatory" announcements it's all been worth it, that shit is funny as hell
Literally nothing changes for us except them starting internal conflict, which is definitely fun to go poke at with a stick
Yeah, our phase of having site-destroying struggle sessions has been over quite awhile. For these new instances, they’re just getting started.
The current mods are chill. The current active user base is chill. Most of the posts are either News Of The Day or hobbies or podcast drama or inside joke shit posts.
Imagine being a community that's terrified of this.
speaking of inside joke good god, this one user I've been arguing with on .world keeps insisting that no one on this instance or lemmygrad is joking actually, we're all serious 100% of the time, and I'm just like... hello? I use this instance, I know when people are joking, you don't, please stfu like holyshit I don't know why concern trolling drives me so fucking nuts
No, everything has to be serious at all times and we cannot find any humor in the absurdity of hell world.
We're not joking about being communists or the stuff that people assume is ironic like supporting AES states, but we do joke a lot around the margins
we're all serious 100% of the time
We're only serious about the bad stuff, like the :gulag
and 👽 and not pouring homeless people in to wood chippers 🪵 and ending the NATOspehere's cruel and vicious attempts at world domination and being mean to Brandon who is just a smol bean president trying his very hardest!liberal condescension is so maddening lol
Chill by our standards, but to them we're terrifying tankist herbicide deniers with doubleplusungood heterodox thought patterns, like "Actually it's bad when NATO does stuff" and "Racism isn't okay just because you used an algorithm to do it" and "Seize the means of production, abolish private property, end wage labor, and create a moneyless, classless, stateless society and/or a society structured on mutual aid".
don't forget the absolute worst transgression, "I'm glad slaveowners are dead"
oh that's true. It's exremely important to use civil language when discussing gerontocratic hell liches and their ruthless campaigns of murder, slavery, and destruction! Being uncivil is just not done, even though we have no political power or ability to influence them and are just pointing out the staggeringly inhuman violence they casually unleash on the world every day!
We're one of the oldest Lemmy instances at this point
I'm looking forward to seeing screenshots from beehaw's inevitable dramatic implosion.
Liberalism is temporary. The Immortal Science shall endure.
