It got much worse just prior to the USA election. Also the entire purpose of this community is shitflinging onto tankie instances, usually after someone gets banned from them so… you’ll see a higher concentration of that here vs. the Fediverse at large.
what’s even more fun is how i got banned from blahaj.zone’s c/transgender for saying hexbear is extremist and they decided to frame that as “calling trans people extremist”.
Hexbear et co literally have called Blahaj a transphobic instance, numerous times. Lunacy.
Like many right-wing fascist-simps-in-arms, plenty know some buzzwords to get people riled up, but don’t know when and where to properly use them.
I really appreciate the levels of irony in your comment, whether or not they are intended.
Hexbear doesn’t count
Is the fediverse always like this? Inter-instance shitflinging?

There’s also !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com and !fediverselore@lemmy.ca that are less shitflinging about it, and have a much wider focus than just onto tankie instances. Check them out! 😀
Mostly, no. Usually, it’s just .world and .ml that get into slapfights. Hexbear is just bizarre.
Hexbear is a horrific mix of trolls and true believers that makes it weirdly toxic.
Yes, there are a lot of tankie instances
