I knew from reading the headline that Hexbear's horde of mouthbreathers would show up to brigade and spread their propaganda. Sure enough, here we are

Edit: You guys really are just proving my point lmao

what happened to freeze-peach?

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 66 points 10 months ago

Brigading is whenever a Hexbear user uses the site like literally everybody else that got here.

[-] NoGodsNoMasters@hexbear.net 61 points 10 months ago

Brigading is when a post shows up in your all tab and you comment on it

[-] puff@hexbear.net 60 points 10 months ago

Brigading is when you federate and use the federation

[-] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 58 points 10 months ago

federation isn't brigading. a post shows up in our feeds, we click on it and comment because helping people dodge the draft is cool and good. We're one of the largest instances, and the consensus we have on issues like "conscription is bad" should not be taken as coordination on the part of hexbear users. If we did deliberately coordinate we'd all link you clowns to the thread where we did it because it would be funny.

Propaganda is when you say the same thing Reuters, CNN, WSJ, etc are all saying about draft corruption in Ukraine lol

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 44 points 10 months ago

Actually mediabiasfactcheck.org says that Reuters is highly objective!

Idk if "commenting on a post from another instance that showed up in my feed because the instance I use is federated with that instance" is brigading.

Very cool that the moment someone says "brigading" I can look at their profile and see, yup they joined in June. Wonder why that is 🤔
