I just blocked the whole instance as soon as the option was implemented. There were few good posts/comunities from it, but overall better to block it whole.

Somehow I can't block it using Voyager, the only instance appearing is test.hexbear.net. Any idea why?

Really? Last time they federated with us they're the ones who ended up defederating and I thought that was the end of it

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

They're mutally defederating.

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

SJW? Social Justice Warrior? Is that an instance?

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Shh... It just works.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

It is Sh.Itjust.Works and the joke has now been improved by an explanation.

I'm actually getting pissed, I have hexbear.net and test.hexbear.net both instance blocked in Voyager but can still see these cretins comments. I could tag them all but that would take forever.

Edit: Fuck it, just blocking them when I see them.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Instance blocking blocks the comms, not the users. You will have to block every user you see if you're reflexively anti-Hexbear, or move to an instance defederated from them entirely.

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That's so fucking lame. I didn't know how good I had it this whole time. But I am absolutely petty enough to block every user from there.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

I believe you.

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'd recommend you go to an instance that blocks hex, like lemmy.ca or sopuli.xyz.

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

I'm not giving up my account because of Nazis. I'll block every one of them if I have to.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club -1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I mean why do they make you that mad they're usually pretty cool

[–] Mjpasta710@midwest.social 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If you find their behavior cool... Cool is defined by society, usually.

Most do not find their behavior remotely cool. They're absolute hypocritical dissent censoring liars, as a majority.

What is cool to you?

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're anti-capitalist and militantly pro LGBTQ+. What's not to like?

[–] Mjpasta710@midwest.social 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Open support of dictatorships, for starters.

They're not honest about their political policies in the slightest.

Lying about everything and censorship of dissent. This really is the icing.

If their ideologies are pure and right, why do they need to silence conversation with imaginary pretenses?

You’re misrepresenting the actuality of the environment you’re promoting…

Few may be decent, though the experience of most non trolling has been, the instance is overrun and managed by a lot of narcissistic, hypercritical, and toxic individuals.

[–] RandomPrivacyGuy@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

they’re usually pretty cool

oh boy how i love having the entire discussion thread be derailed by a bunch of angry hexbears spamming stickers

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago (2 children)

If you want to sit at the table with Nazis, that's up to you, I have no room for them.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 week ago

Equating Communists to Nazis is a form of Nazi apologia. I suggest you read Blackshirts and Reds.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nazis????

In what universe are these people Nazis???

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee -1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Your account is almost 2 years old so you're either on an instance that hasn't shown you their shit, you're ignorant to the real world and how this has been playing out time and time again, or you're intentionally pretending to not see them for what they are.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Communists are far-left, Nazis are far-right. These are diametrically opposed, and are why the Soviets were the most effective anti-Nazi force in World War II, responsible for 90% of Nazi deaths. The Nazis are the most effective anticommunists, that's why they targeted German Communists first, in both the famous "first they came for" poem and in real life.

Hexbear are Communists, full-stop.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club -1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

No, my instance has always federated with them and I have not had any problems with Hexbear. They can be loud and boisterous when prompted but as far as Nazi-ism? They are leftists I'm truly confused at what you're on about. Could you be any more specific?

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago

The only problem I have with them is the fans of authoritarian leftism (which isn't the majority, from what I can see), and how they kinda consume the comments of some posts.
They are cool a lot of the time.

Do be aware of the limitations of user blocking though.
