Bruh I poked the hexbear once when a dude was arguing over exactly how to classify the Uyiger genocide. Something about how "it's not a genocide, but just an ethnic cleansing" they really didn't like when I pointed out just how weird of an argument that is. Fascists usually short circuit pretty fast under redicule

Beehaw? I’ve had nothing but good interactions with them, personally.

Beehaw? The most adorable place in the lemmy space IMO!

If you don't like them fine, but please reconsider lumpung them together with the crazy fascist ones please 😊

??? (Mostly) Nothing wrong with Beehaw or pawb.social, most are good people around those parts

Eh, more often than not their longer posts are just "actually Stalin/Putin/Mao/Kim dynasty/Trump good because <5 page essay>"

Edit: also the classic "comparing Stalin to Hitler is a form of Holocaust denial" and in the same breath calling everyone not in their vatnik bubble a nazi or fascist lmao

Yeah I don't think much of it either.. They just take offense to something doesn't even apply to them lol

Understand that some or most of the key posters there are literally pawns of Russian or Chinese intelligence. Troll farms, wumao, what have you. Whether they are literally government employees or contracted through a third party, their purpose is to astroturf positive optics of their employer and negative optics of the US/the West as a whole. A more sinister interpretation, they are trying to destabilize the West by doing things like trashing Biden, now Harris, hoping to secure a chaotic and inwardly destructive Trump presidency.

Anything they say is to service these goals, anything they believe is mutable to these goals, and nothing they argue is in good faith.

I've seen some downright insane takes on how what the Chinese are doing to the Uighurs is not as bad as it seems.

The only surprise there is that you weren't banned from lemmy.ml also.

Actually they blocked us first lmao.

It was great. They made a whole event about how they will dunk all of Lemmy and fill every thread with their spam... Just to realise they're not in a safespace anymore and they defederated themselves in less than 24 hours.

There’s a few mods that bans people just for being liberal there. What fucking clowns man. Then their little minions come to .world and whine about how they’re treated unfairly when they troll.

As Goat has said, this platform (Lemmy) is comprised of instances, some, like Lemmy.world, are general instances, and some have a specific theme or type of content they cater to. There's one for furry porn, one for regular porn, for example, and one for utterly insufferable Internet communists who make a point of behaving badly in other communities.

The fediverse is an interconnected community composed of instances. Every website is its own instance that can communicate with other instances

So right now I'm on sh.itjust.works, and you're on lemmy.world.
