Hexbear users' OFFICIAL statement on the preemptive defederation of lemmy.world from hexbear.net
(hexbear.net)
LOOK AT THIS DOPE ASS BEAR
Jealous? 
Honestly if the result of the federation is just every lib instance defederating and having to write one of these "it's not for ideological reasons, it's just that supporting NATO is mandatory" announcements it's all been worth it, that shit is funny as hell
Literally nothing changes for us except them starting internal conflict, which is definitely fun to go poke at with a stick
Yeah, our phase of having site-destroying struggle sessions has been over quite awhile. For these new instances, they’re just getting started.
The current mods are chill. The current active user base is chill. Most of the posts are either News Of The Day or hobbies or podcast drama or inside joke shit posts.
Imagine being a community that's terrified of this.
Chill by our standards, but to them we're terrifying tankist herbicide deniers with doubleplusungood heterodox thought patterns, like "Actually it's bad when NATO does stuff" and "Racism isn't okay just because you used an algorithm to do it" and "Seize the means of production, abolish private property, end wage labor, and create a moneyless, classless, stateless society and/or a society structured on mutual aid".
don't forget the absolute worst transgression, "I'm glad slaveowners are dead"
speaking of inside joke good god, this one user I've been arguing with on .world keeps insisting that no one on this instance or lemmygrad is joking actually, we're all serious 100% of the time, and I'm just like... hello? I use this instance, I know when people are joking, you don't, please stfu like holyshit I don't know why concern trolling drives me so fucking nuts
We're not joking about being communists or the stuff that people assume is ironic like supporting AES states, but we do joke a lot around the margins
No, everything has to be serious at all times and we cannot find any humor in the absurdity of hell world.
The last time I smiled was on August 19th, 1991.
I wear a dirty ushanka at all times, do not shave, and only take cold sponge baths because hot running water is bourgeoisie decadence.
Every day at exactly noon I have the same meal of an expired Maoist MRE I store in a pit covered in old issues of a revolutionary newspaper.
I sleep in a bed made of flags from every failed revolution so that they are never forgotten.
In the evenings I stare at a picture of vodka by candlelight, but I do not allow myself to drink because there is nothing to celebrate.
Every local org has banned me after I attempted to split it by assassinating the leadership.
There is no plumbing in my house I shit in a brass bucket with a picture of Gonzalo and Deng french kissing in the bottom of it.
My house is actually an overturned T34 in an abandoned junkyard in Wisconsin.
I have a single friend in this world and it is a tapeworm named Bordiga that I met after ingesting spoiled borscht on 9/11 in the ruins of building 7 (I blew it up after finding that a nominally leftist NGO inside of it wasn’t sufficiently anti-imperialist, the attacks on the world trade center were a perfect revolutionary moment for me to enact direct praxis against liberalism).
My source of income is various MLM schemes in the former soviet bloc that have been running for so long no one remembers who I am, they just keep sending money.
I have not paid taxes since McGovern lost the Democratic nomination for president and my faith in electoralism died more brutally than my childhood dog after it got into an entire jar of tylenol.
I own 29 fully automatic rusted kalashnikovs and three crates of ammunition entirely incompatible with them or any other firearms I own.
My double PHD in marxist economics and 18th century Swiss philosophy (required to understand Engels) sits over the fireplace of my home, my fireplace is a salvaged drum from a 1950s washing machine that was recalled for locking children inside of it.
I chose that washing machine model on purpose because I am anti-natalist.
During the latest BLM protests I firebombed a Nikes outlet in the middle of a peaceful candlelit vigil.
William F Buckley and I wrote hatemail to one another for 47 years until my final letter gave him an aneurysm. The only water I drink is from puddles.
George Lucas and I dropped acid together during an MKULTRA southern baptist summer camp and he went on to write the movie Willow about our time together.
The best way to test whether an electrical wire is live is to drool on it and shrimp salad is racist. You can make an IED out of potassium and the instructions are online thanks to Timothy McVey, who was actually a committed antifascist communist slandered by the deep state as part of operation condor.
Every time a liberal files a restraining order against me, I carve a mark into the wall.
I am running out of walls.
When Amerika finally collapses I will be ready to lead the revolution.
I am very smart and people like being around me.
