cryptocurrency scam

hexbear-punished scammer

Literally who? It should surprise nobody that crypto grifters will just grab any name, logo, concept, or anything else that isn't tied down and just run away with it along with the bag. Clearly since this guy's username is an adjective and the word deer, he MUST be affiliated with the ToxicDeer crypto scam! An account on Lemmy.zip? That site must have something to do with the famous scam software WinZip which so cruelly tells me that it's been 7322 days since I installed it on my PC!

they love to boast about not banning users from the instance itself

i have literally never seen a single hexbear do that
if anything you instance ban way more than most

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

they're talking about how I openly said I didn't ban that dipshit rose from the website, the same dork Jack banned from the games comm, because that jackass was also whining about being banned on hexbear in one of their anti-communist echo chambers.

Reminds me of that one Parenti quote where you literally can't do anything without being criticized by fascist-adjacent boot-licking liberal conservative cold war warriors whenever discussing the Soviet Union.

It just sounds as of BarmyDeer doesnt know how Lemmy works. Which is a problem for BarmyDeer, not us.

These people really don't understand what a "nazi" or "nazi sympathiser" are. To them it is just the Bad Word. The Bad thing. The Worst Thing a Person Can Possibly Be. So they look at completely unrelated metrics, lik being pro animal rights or LGBTQ rights, and conclude that they "can't be a nazi sympathiser" because to them, a nazi sympathiser has obvious tells, the camera always looks up at them from a low angle shot and dramatic music plays to clearly indicate their "Bad Guy" status.

It's absurd, it's like asking if someone is a mechanic, and they just list off a bunch of unrelated bullshit "He swam a lot in highschool" "His favourite food is Chow Mien" "He volunteers with the homeless sometimes." Yeah but, none of these answer the actual question at hand. It doesn't matter how good the "other stuff" a person does is, to determine whether they are a nazi sympathiser, we check to see if they actively sympathise with nazis.

But then, if liberals actually examined that and considered it, they would be forced to realise that they are also nazi sympathisers, because that is where their "enlightened centrism" invariably leads people. And that's a bad thing, so they must never think about it.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago

Westerners think the definition of Nazi is "someone who hates Jewish people" and nothing else.

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

My favorite element of these particular kind of nerds is when they seem to think that Hexbear mods are doing some shifty back-alley maneuver when they get "soft censor"ed, and like the users here are deluded in thinking Hexbear is some kind of bastion of "open discussion" or free speech or whatever.

Like, nah, dude. Not only am I glad you got banned from this site, I would also be fucking thrilled if people just saying wrong and/or hateful shit were consistently forced to shut the fuck up in practically all contexts.

You got "censored"? Good.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They didn't even get banned for the purposes of censoring them, it's quite literally a case of "who the fuck is this limey posting on a 12 day old post?"

Going to "what the fuck are they saying, did they get fucking lost and somehow end up here? Their registration form said their friend suggested they make an account here? Fucking who has shit friends here they want posting like this on hexbear?"

To "alright lemme plug their name into the search bar and see if their friend pops up... oh they got another account on another instance let's see what's in their account history... wait they made an account on hexbear to try and civility troll people in a public demonstration of our hypocrisy and anti-democratic tendencies? What the fuck?"

"Welps, into the bin you go, you zero-energy troll"

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

It's just pure Calvinball with these guys. They make up an arbitrary set of rules we need to follow, then when we "break" their rules while maintaining our instance's own very clearly laid out rules, we "lose" their game and they get to go and act all smug that they "beat us" It's like playing a board game with a kindergartner who refuses to lose.

Bolshevik echo chamber

Wow, BarmyDeer really got our number!

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 18 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Who even gives a shit about user numbers? I don't know how many users are on Hexbear/any given comm and I can't imagine caring.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 14 points 2 days ago

I don't even know how many people are on Hexbear lmao.

I think it's a kid, because they seem to care really hard about being socially "normal"

[–] OldSoulHippie@hexbear.net 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's not like they're making money off of us or something. Plus, a lot of us probably have inactive accounts for various reasons such as opsec, quitting to touch grass for a while and coming back, shaking someone who was being annoying...

If we wanted to "inflate numbers" we could all just agree to each have five alts and rotate using them.

[–] VibeCoder@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago

I’m pretty sure I’m nearing quadruple digits of dead alts tbf

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

also unsubbing from comms doesn nothing to reduce instance user numbers since that only counts hexbear accounts not users from other instances

bolshevik echo chamber

The rest of existence is one big echo chamber for neo-nazis, yet it’s only a problem when our side does it?

Sorry I like the one online community that doesn’t salivate over genocide fantasies of brown or queer people.

[–] HelluvaBottomCarter@hexbear.net 15 points 2 days ago

There's a little stank on that use of "bolshevik" that I do not appreciate.

[–] mendiCAN@hexbear.net 11 points 2 days ago

ah, good ol' MoG... hahahahahaaaaa! whew! imagine subscribin' to a whole-ass comm dedicated to 'not caring' and never grasping the irony.

Sadly silver legion went extint a while ago and we only get the legend of yellow snow once in a while, so we are stuck with crybaby lemmy libs most of the time
