If so, was it polled somewhere?

I see a small corner of the lemmyverse...

I see your instance...
...alone...

And a lot of defederations...

Jesus that's a lot of defederations...

They're just misunderstood. Uh, yeah, misunderstood. That's it.

[–] RiikkaTheIcePrincess@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just mention them once, sixty or so will be by promptly to "help" you "understand."

...Then the rest drop by to see how much of a mess they can make of the relatively calm and sensible clusterfuck already present, because every question or comment absolutely must be met with a raucous cacophony of condescending crap.

I think this is just a matter of imageboard culture that just can't / won't mesh with general internet civility.

Leave Hexbear users to their spaces. My hands are washed.

Leave Hexbear users to their spaces.

Normally I'd be inclined to agree, but the problem is they don't stay in those spaces; they regularly invade other instances en masse, harass its community members and pollute it with pro-Russia & China propaganda and genocide denial, then feign innocence and use their high percentage of LGBTQ+ users as a shield. It's really fucked up, and it's happening in all the major instances in the 'verse. I mean, you're right, they're not gonna mesh and aren't meshing well with other instances, but that's solely because they go to other instances and deliberately start shit. We are leaving them to their spaces; they just aren't reciprocating.

general internet civility

I honestly do not know what this looks like

Either everyone calling each other hard r n-bombs, or everyone walking on pins and needles making sure that they don't say something against the will of the zeitgeist.

Please understand that I’m being completely sincere when I say that, judging from your post history, you should seriously consider taking a break from the internet to deal with your anger issues. When you spend your time lashing out at other people because of the instance they use, complaining about protests that are trying to prevent the implementation of policies which contribute to climate change, and hoping that other countries get destroyed by nuclear weapons because you don’t like their leaders, the only thing you’re accomplishing is increasing your chances of getting a heart attack

And you claim, hexbear users are the one misbehaving...

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Them misbehaving doesn't prevent the others misbehaving...

[–] Grimble@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

Just accept that it's fine to be rude on the internet, that theres nothing you can do to stop it, and both sides can let this rest. Damn

[–] ReadFanon@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

The point isn't to excuse anything. If you didn't catch it, they were pointing out that user's hypocrisy.

Feel free to ping me if you find yourself missing the point in conversations here, I'd be glad to help you out with it, any time!

man, hexbears are so rude all the time for no reason!

[–] Venus@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm always getting fucked, it's awesome, you should try it. Could there be some misogyny and homophobia involved in the implication that being fucked is bad? bean-think
