Hexbear users' OFFICIAL statement on the preemptive defederation of lemmy.world from hexbear.net
(hexbear.net)
LOOK AT THIS DOPE ASS BEAR
Jealous? 
Lemmyworld is forever going to be referred to as the instance full of pedos, transphobes and fascists that tried its hardest not to defederate an explicitly nazi instance while pulling this shit with a soft dirtbag left instance that spawned from the chapo podcast of all things.
Like, what a fucking reputation to give yourselves so early on.
Haha, your comment is taken as example by a poster with many upvotes to why it is good to not federate with us. Since it shows people obvious dunking (so people being uncivil) aren't allowed liberal rights of the marketplace of ideas. They feel it is unfair to label them "full of pedos" (for taking to long to ban the stuff, unfair to be labeled transphobes (though there is still plenty to be found on the site, unless hexbear), unfair to be labeled being more friendly to fascists than socialists.
Funny that the unfair labeling of hexbear's userbase doesn't seem to be as unfair.
If they don't want to be labelled as "full of pedos" then they shouldn't be federated with instances serving pedo content while defederating with instances like ours.
They've made their bed, they can lie in it. They think a bunch of socialists are worse than pedos and nazis. They can have a taste of what that means in terms of reputation when thousands and thousands of people repeat it everywhere.
