I don’t like to see so many political posts in all and so many weird images in comment sections

Reddit refugees on lemmy: it's nice to be on a site that doesn't have lots of power hungry mods arbitrarily banning people
Also reddit refugees on lemmy: BAN ALL THE INSTANCES THAT I DONT AGREE WITH POLITICALLY
- People don’t want to block hexbear because they disagree with them, they want to block that instance because they often act like they’ve got the social skills of a neglected 5-year-old on meth. Further, because that’s who they’ve surrounded themselves with they have convinced themselves it’s normal or even appreciated.
  
  I disagree to defederate from them, but you made a beatiful argument for it.
  
  If the most beautiful argument is "how dare those people I'm vomiting bile at insult me back!" You should probably find a better argument.
  
  Stop your fetishization of china and I'll consider it.
  
  Why would I do that?
  
  Have you not seen the thousand posts calling us fascists or some equivalent?
  
  In Japan, there’s a competition known as the Kezuroukai Planing Competition. It’s a challenge for experienced woodworkers to see who can plane the thinnest contiguous piece of wood using a type of hand plane known as a kanna. The thinnest piece I last heard of was around 3 microns.
  I only mentioned this because it sounds like your skin might beat the record if people calling out the bad behavior of others on your instance immediately gets you this riled up.
  
  I'm talking about what is true or false, not what is right or wrong.
  Also, calling someone a troll or an idiot vs calling them a fascist are two extremely different things and I very intentionally meant the latter
  
  Oh, like when hexbears call for deaths of property owners or “libs”, is that one of those different things too?
  
  Not property owners, property hoarders. Owning a home is fine, owning many homes to exploit the monopolistic nature of renting housing is antisocial behavior and must be stopped. If someone decides that their right to exploit those poorer than them is worth defending with their life, they made their choice.
  If you can't tell the difference between that and believing in antisemitic conspiracy theories and racial mythology, I am afraid the help you need is far beyond my capabilities.
  
  You’re all over the place It’s like you heard the pigeon chess analogy and thought the pigeon was the hero of the story.
  
  You're the one who is all over the place, I'm just responding to what you say. Stop projecting.
  
  Not all libs, just you.
  
  It's really weird to just make shit up, ascribe it to entire group of people, and then just say it like it is fact. Odd behavior.
  
  No u
  
  Oh please, hexbear users are no ruder than any other instance to people they disagree with, it's just that you reddit refugees are used to being able to be as toxic as you like to communists without pushback, and now that you're on a level footing you can't take it.
  
  "Hexbears aren't rude!"
  You literally just posted your weirdly fetishized pooping pig two times in a row before this comment.
  But I guess the cognitive dissonance comes with being a china apologist.
  
  Hexbears aren't rude!"
  Not what I said. But I guess that kind of dishonesty comes with being a nazi apologist.
  
  To ease your easily startled mind, even if I consider the toxicity of users from other instances, your spam easily tops that.
  
  That's because you're not on the receiving end of toxicity and spam from other instances, because you don't disagree with their politics. That and because Hexbear is a big instance compared to most.
  
  Different opinions are scary aren't they? Don't worry you can hide under the bed. Fortunately, the world will change around you anyways.
- I don’t want to ban them I just want to not see them personally
  
  I think it's a feature that's going to be implemented soon.
- No one on lemmy can ban anyone on hexbear what are you talking about
- Nah fuck fascists and nazis. Hexscists are some of the worst of both.
