    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?

                I signed up for tech and finance news, memes and furry content, so I’m happier to mainly see just those things.

                My instance’s choice to defederate has no bearing whatsoever on Hexbear users’ free speech rights.

                Here’s the admin’s long and well-reasoned explanation: https://pawb.social/comment/1766861

                  Can’t help but notice zero images or links. No evidence, all sabre-rattling.

                  So yea, just stock-standard right-wing anti-Marxism.

                    Yeah, standard anti-Marxist right-winger, that’s why I chose the “LGBT+ friendly, furry general purpose Lemmy instance”. Maybe touch grass?
