Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them? (sh.itjust.works)

If so, was it polled somewhere?

If you're familiar with CTH and the dirtbag left, Hexbear is where they went after being banned by Reddit.

I had to look them up but yep I do remember CTH. Thanks for the answer, I'll keep an eye out.

What? There's plenty of nonsense in there, for example:

[https://lemm.ee/comment/2394714](also, fuck off landlord. Mao was right.)

From the wiki:

In this vein, Mao insisted that the people themselves, not the public security organs, should become involved in enacting the Land Reform Law and killing the landlords who had oppressed them, in contrast to the Soviet practice of dekulakization.

... yikes. That said, it's online bickering, there's always going to be examples of bad behaviour.

As for my own, unasked, opinion on hexbear. I don't really notice them around. Maybe its because I'm blind to them as I am generally left leaning, I did by contrast notice the EH memes before they were defederated. I'm generally an all/new scroller on Lemmy.

No, no, they're right on this one. Killing your landlord is good actually. Like literally everything else Mao did was bad, but he was right on this.

I get the feeling if you learnt more about Mao you'd find a lot of things you'd want to add to your list.
