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

If so, was it polled somewhere?

I don't mind the general hexbear ideology in itself. Sure. You do you.
But, damn, I see more than a few of its members just being obnoxious.
- I won't call debunking imperialist propaganda from the west, and dunking on racist and ableist users, "obnoxious".
  Anyways,

  Mate. That's not the obnoxious part. Posts like this are the obnoxious part.
  
  dude's trolling. There's no way tankies use that image, that is one of the most cringe things i've ever seen in my life
  
  Have you browsed Hexbear? This ain't trolling. It's very much genuine.
  If it is trolling, then it's just an entire instance posting an inside joke and then pointing and laughing at the people not in-the-know who don't "get it."
  It's not clever.
  
  Not liking ablism and racism is an in-joke?
  This is why ya'll can get fucked, I'm tired of seeing this garbage in my feed.
  
  Lol what an absolute clusterfuck.
- It’d be lovely if you could just see the hexbear powerusers somewhere convenient and mass block. I went through a couple subreddits of theirs, found the top posts, blocked everyone with more than 50 upvotes. Real pain in the ass, but I suddenly have far fewer teenagers who peaked in middle school debate club to deal with.

  This statement isn't even internally consistent, are we teenagers or did we peak in middle school?
  
  You peaked in middle school, you’re now a depressed teenager in high school or therabouts.
  Try a little harder when trying to pose as a well intentioned and reasonable human.
  
  "hexbear is toxic"
  
  Correct!
  
  Civility is when I get to deride anyone who disagrees with me as a child and they are forbidden from saying anything mean in return
  
  As you so excellently demonstrate.
  
  Ahh yes, indubitably my good sir!

  Imagine typing the paragraph that came before this, and then going on to write and post this without detecting the irony
  
  I make no such posturing, because I don’t give a rat’s ass what you think of me. I’m not dedicating my life’s work to.. making other internet less pleasant for everyone else? Because you can’t possibly be so deluded as to think your actions as a whole are positive?
  Anyways, there’s no chance in hell lil smoothbrain me is going to convince any of you enlightened geniuses of our time to pull your heads out of your collective asses. I’m just annoyed you make the meme machine worse.

  You are posting from an instance full of people who have been doing nothing but that since we whitelisted you
  
  Pfft, please cry about it and get your whole cult to fuck off. Would be so much simpler since we can’t block entire instances yet.
  Anyways, your echo chamber works better the more enclosed it is. Win win!
  
  So is it an echo chamber or are we brigaders?
  The only cult behavior I see is from you noxious ass liberals who all speak in the same reddit cadence acting all aggrieved because people are to the left of you and aren't being nice to you
  
  No I’d much rather the sour grapes act than the fascist 101 “I’m going to speak all civil and try to make you appear unreasonable for being so aggressive against me”.
  You don’t get rid of fascists or tankies through tolerance and acceptance after all.
  
  You are the one with a server full of fash
  
  You can actually go to Hexbear communities like mentalhealth or mutual_aid and half the posts are shit like "I need help paying rent" and "I hate my job"
  You're so married to the reactionary idea of "Communists are all just ignorant teenagers" that you can't see the evidence against it when it's right in front of you
  
  No, you’re just the worst kind of communist/socialist: the insufferable type nobody else wants to fucking deal with. Stop giving socialism a bad name.
  
  You just implied !main@hexbear.net was a sub
  
  I must defend it with some old fashion fisticuffs.
  
  You call us toxic and then still call things "subreddits."
  
  What a factual yet utterly meaningless statement.
  
  It's a joke about how reddit sucks and we're mostly here to get away from it, sorry I'm not good at jokes but I like to try :)
