A very useful idiot. I hope he didn’t manage to murder any Ukrainians before the Russians killed him.

Typical garbage propaganda from Hexbear
There are some great instances out there if you want to leave .ml
Lemm.ee is great. No weird censorship or propaganda like ml
Why waste time with a Hexbear account
Go away Hexbear propagandist.
More like Definiteline
A lot of it isn’t actually communists, but a facade for spreading authoritarian propaganda.
Why the hell is lemmy.zip federated with Hexbear
The Kremlin’s jets are flying over Ukraine and part of their barbaric land grab, why shouldn’t Ukrainians fly over Russia to stop attacks on their home?
Go bomb the shit out of them. Shoot down the terrorist bombers launching missiles at markets and playgrounds.
“yeah I’d like to order one large shitpost with a side of shitcomments”
Welcome! There’s a lot of actually good content on here if you avoid Hexbear and lemmy.ml.
I go back and anonymously browse Reddit sometimes and it feels plastic.
Are you implying there are Israeli government shills on social media using this as a wedge issue? Seems unlikely to me.
I’m reading people directly trying to influence opinion to not vote for Biden by any means necessary while willfully and actively avoiding any consequences to a trump win
Exactly, Kremlin shills and trolls using Israel’s genocide as a wedge issue to get their asset into the White House again so he cuts support for Ukraine and pulls out of NATO.
I think this is too nuanced for lemmy.ml to handle, they prefer black and white
Fair enough, I see your point. Thanks for explaining.
That does nothing to solve the problem. I want to see the Fediverse succeed.
I’m considering leaving the fediverse altogether
I’ve had moments where I considered it too, because of all the tankies and propaganda, but I’m still here because I really want to see it succeed.
Unfortunately, I won’t even admit to anyone that I use it, let alone recommend it. I think from a rational outside perspective, the unfiltered Fediverse is an extremist echochamber. Some of the things that get said and heavily upvoted are wild.
I’ve had death threats multiple times from Hexbear users, and I’ve abandoned an account because Lemmy.ml users followed me around and downvoted everything I posted (which was mostly memes at the time).
We can’t expect people to deal with all of that when there’s already a relatively steep learning curve when joining. There’s no corporation running the show to fight propaganda, we have to deal with it, or the Fediverse is at risk of going the way of Voat.
Sad to think that maybe he realized he was being used and that’s why they murdered him.
