        They defederated with .ca and .world because of all the racism, transphobia and general right wing culture in those instances and that’s basically all of the parent comments in here

          Idk about .ca but .world defederated preemptively from .hexbear because their admins are selfaware wolves who knew hex would point out their rightwigness.

        Yes and no. They are federated with many communities, but the larger anti-Marxist instances like Lemmy.world are not federated. That’s by design, Hexbear wishes to protect their marginalized members such as their trans, queer, gender-nonconforming, and EM/POC communities.

          It has the beneficial side effect of protecting non-federated instances from redfash psychobabble and shock images

            What is a “redfash?” Is that your word for Marxists? What do you mean by “shock images,” hexbear emotes?

              That’s how I’d characterize the insanely toxic comments stanning dictators and defending genocides that I saw regularly before my instance had enough

                Mind explaining what you mean by “stanning dictators” or “defending genocides?” Those are heavy allegations and that needs heavy proof.

                  None of it is visible to me anymore, but I’d welcome you to view the admin defederation announcements, many of which included rationale and examples of that content.

                    So, nothing? Are you just a right-winger anti-Marxist that saw a picture of a pig with poop on its balls and cried for defederation? What was that about free speech, again?
