I don't hate you, this defederation thing is something I don't like. It creates echo chambers. Reddit was an echo chamber, too. But it was one everyone creates for themselves, subscribe: privacy, linux and selfhost and your chamber of anti-GAFAM is ready to rock (for example).

Seeing Hexbear and other stuff in "All" helps to escape your own bubble and creates more divergent discussion.

I agree with your last statement 100%

I am generally against defederation and censorship.

In response to the OP of this topic though, people hate hexbears because of the constant hardcore brigading and the huge inline image abuse.

It's annoying as fuck. As soon as you smell a "lib", even though you are usually wrong, it just turns into a massive dogpile on anyone who doesn't share your identical belief structure.

That isn't debate, it's bullying. You have the numbers to pull it off but if it carries on you will absolutely end up defederated from everywhere.

We're actually 100% correct, just fyi. A lot of people don't know that about us

Yes, you are absolutely the smartest ones in the room. All rooms. At all times.

I suspect the userbase of hexbear skews extremely young. I too had everything figured out when I was younger.

As opposed to you, who definitely doesn't roleplay being the "smartest one in the room" and speak in condescending generalizations about a large group of political others. Never ever.

No, we are all just slightly older than you - the age where you actually do figure everything out for real this time. Big old people just doesn't want you to know.
