Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them?

Pretty disappointing that @iamaqtpie is active on hexbear and says things like:
Also disappointing that hexbear gets to vote federation, while we are left to federate to hexbear without a choice because the admins like the instance. Lame.
It's clear that sh.itjust.works does not care to get community support in it's decision making and we are left at the whims of the admins preferences. Isn't this why most of us left Reddit? Because community say didn't mean anything?
here's the whole quote, emphasis mine:
Why would you take this out of context, and what is your issue with the whole quote?
technically we were just expressing our support for US military action in the civil war and the song John Brown's body. Which was an official song of the US army at one point.
We were kicked off for our American patriotism if you think about it
The quote was to establish that the admins personal feelings are involved about the instance.
It is an objective fact that the sub was banned on Reddit for hate speech. The rolling eyes emoji establishes the admins personal feelings on the subject.
Whether the ban is justified or not is irrelevant to my point that SJW does not care to understand what its user base may want.
It's an "objective fact" that support for John Brown's history of fighting slavery and slavers is hate speech?
Way to drop that mask.
Slavers do (and did) deserve to die though, it's not hate speech it's just true
kill all slavers. every last one.
We are just better at democracy then you, sweety.
China isn't democratic

Ya I will take the people of china's word on this one.
yes and North Korea is democratic because it says they are.
More democratic than the US. The US has an electoral college system explicitly designed to make electing a president undemocratic. In Korea they vote for each equivalent of a cabinet position instead of letting the president just appoint all of them. https://www.ncnk.org/sites/default/files/DPRK%20constitution%20%282019%29.pdf
If this shocks you, remember that Americans are the most propagandized people in the history of the world
China is not North Korea.
It took less then 2 minutes from my post for you to reply. You clearly didn't even open the link. You just instantly changed the subject matter. Lol
Ah, hexbear users still struggling with federation, so cute!
Post times are different per instance, my he/him, I looked through your article, and it didn't really wow me.
China is authoritarian, filled with mass propaganda and nationalism, of course they're going to think they're great.
I literally got a notification when they replied. in real time...
I know when I made my comment... less then 2 minutes before I got a notification...
Tell me more about how the lemmy works. I have only been here 4 years.
Good bye, agent.
Yo we got that too in America.
The citation wasn't the state, it was the people, or are you going to take such an immensely condescending attitude towards the approximately 1 billion people represented in that survey as believing they live in a democracy?
Whataboutism
oh you not gonna whataboutism mentioning the US?
Also whataboutism
thanks pal
That's a bit of a non-sequitur in this instance don't you think? We're not talking about what the name of a place is, but rather how the two countries' citizenry feel about their respective governments.
So isn't it good that the US people don't trust their government?
LMAO I got banned for this post
No reason given. Just "mod Banned"
That's a highly suspicious use of a ban that I would like admin feedback on.
While your take about decision making is slightly wrong...
We're federating with everything by default and use blocklists. Hexbear is fedetating with nobody by default and uses allowlists.
Basically, no action has been made by local admins for this new federation to happen.
We never had to defederate them before because they weren't fedetating with us.
The next step would be discussion then vote in the agora. I expect defederation to take a bit more than a week if the process hasn't changed too much since last time.
That said, your comment isn't anywhere near ban worthy and is a really bad optics on whichever mod was involved in that.
Looks like I got unbanned and my alt banned
We are so back.
You’re welcome to join hexbear, where this federation decision was voted on and we tried to make a space for people who are tired of the fediverse too.
