My first months on Lemmy were spent on Lemmy.world, which was the biggest instance at the time. I had no experience with Hexbear because .world had defederated that instance. I sometimes saw it being described as a "tankie" instance, but it was nothing specific.

After I moved to .zip, I came across !games@hexbear.net, which seemed to be free from anything overtly political and reminded me of r/Gamingcirclejerk, so I subscribed to it and occasionally made comments related to gaming.

Today I made multiple comments to a post about an article on the STALKER game developers having removed the Soviet symbols and the Russian audio in the remastered edition of the game. I would argue that in the thread, there were no comments from me that could be construed by a reasonable person as defensive of Nazism, fascism, or even hinting at it. For example, in one of the comments, I linked a Ukrainian law that prohibits the use of Nazi symbols, though I highly advise looking through all my ten comments as to avoid any misunderstanding or false impressions.

Conversely, one comment posted by another user dismissed Holodomor as Nazi propaganda, which I reported, but a moderator of that community just ended up calling me out for that and taking no action, followed by them banning me.

The thread containing all of my untouched posts is still available via lemmy.zip. My comments are also available for viewing via my user page. They are not available on hexbear due to the ban.

We need some Andor emoji's. I really want some "Syril-Shocked" or "Syril-Cop-Surprised" stickers to drop in comments.

I banned them! I'm the one who called them a fascist sympathizer!

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 54 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's funny because @Rose@lemmy.zip isn't actually banned from hexbear overall, just the game comm.

So if they think the mod decision was somehow wrong, they can come here and file a grievance with one of the admins.

I hope they organize a brigade from that thread and come try to argue with me!

God forbid like three or four brave souls decide to go on an expedition here to try and win a political victory over us on!

I'll let them stand on their soap box and see how many comments it takes for them to start saying slurs

Honestly the actual socialist states, the Scandinavian ones. Tend to be some of the happiest and highest rated on the planet. Consistently even. Generally the authoritarian ones regardless of where they pretend to be economically are often the worst.

Lol, the dumbest people are against us

[–] MarxusMaximus@hexbear.net 58 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (4 children)

Happiness inquiry: "Can you imagine a future where you are happier than you are right now?"

Scandis: "No. I cannot be happier than I am right now, despite being miserable, since happiness is an illusion."

Libs: "This means they're the happiest people in the world!"

[–] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 35 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

I think this is a microcosm of why so many people who grow up under capitalism and hear nothing but "capitalism is the best system possible" become misanthropic and antinatalist.

Oh my God how do y'all stand these people for more than a moment lmao. They take online posting so seriously. Everything's a matter of life or death civilizational collapse and scary foreign devils attempting to beguile our pure little minds away from glorious Western consensus.

Also if you're a self described leftist stop trying to be one of the good ones. You're never going to be a model minority for liberals. They don't care. You're not winning anything by claiming to be a leftist, but not like those scary Chinese, but rather like the good nice white Swedish. It's not gonna work. In fact the whole exercise of denouncing the West's enemies before calling yourself a socialist is demonstrating your obedience. You've showing that you'll always play a little game before saying anything of substance, you'll eagerly waste your own time. It doesn't go anywhere

Furthermore not even the political stuff, these people are insufferable nerds who should get stuffed into lockers while I point and laugh. I don't even understand the urge. If I got banned from a forum of genocide denying fascists, I'd simply go about my day no longer burdened by the ability to look at the opinions of a bunch of deranged fascist lunatics. If I were in a protracted conversation with someone online, upon discovery of a contentious opinion of theirs (genocide denial, bigotry, etc) I'd simply tell them I had sexual intercourse with their father and then I'd send an image of a pig shitting on its own balls. Then I'd never interact with that person again. Why do liberals believe they need to defend their honor online? Being on an internet forum at all makes you a little weird goblin (myself included), so just embrace it.

There's a reason the "dirtbag left" upsets liberals so much, by refusing to play their games, refusing to engage in the complex liberal ritual of dancing around a topic while never explicitly condemning it OR committing to it, it just breaks their brains, it makes them so mad that someone could actually stand for something, and not just empty token gestures, and not sacrifice their own morals in the sake of "civility" either. They hate it, because it is a reminder that they are not the inherently good people they think they are, and that liberalism is a path of failure and destruction, not centrist enlightenment.

reminded me of r/Gamingcirclejerk

literally the same fucking mods (or close enough) that run gcj run our games comm, what a clown. @Rose@lemmy.zip every joke on gcj besides the others from your fellow hapless libs went over your head, and you should be ashamed for that.

eat shit fascist.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 68 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Also if you're looking at this thread, the reason that the comment that called you out for spreading the Holodomor myth and called the Holodomor nazi propaganda is because nazis literally came up with the narrative of the Holodomor as a genocide so they could rehabilitate the image of Eastern European nazis as freedom fighters. You know, Eastern European nazis like... Yaroslav Hunka of the SS 1st Galician who got a standing ovation in Canadian Parliament for being a Ukrainian hero?

[–] falgscode@hexbear.net 53 points 2 days ago (1 children)

yeah when I read those crocodile tears about the uncritical repetition of propaganda was when I added the last bit. @Rose@lemmy.zip I hope you literally eat some shit, you genocide revisionist

the liberal got scratched, idk

and I get you're not a c/games mod, but in general your takes are hexbear-centrist so they may as well be party line lol

I once again ask what I said in reply to their comment, what the fuck does Holodomor have to do with language suppression? This dipshit was so low effort and yet they thought they presented some bombshell.

Also I love how posting a law that bans displays of anti-fascism and the denigration of nazi collaboration is somehow impossible to construe as fascist.

[–] LupineTroubles@hexbear.net 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You know something doesn't exist in a society when it's illegal. If it ever happened why would there be laws against it? How could laws ever represent anything but good faith zeitgeist of pure order and benevolence?

[–] Zuzak@hexbear.net 41 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Then he called me a fascist again, and someone else said I was a fascist. And then they basically all started shouting fascist at me, and one of them grabbed me by the wrists. They pulled me out the door, it was up three floors, and basically drug me down the stairs on my back. It hurt really bad and I remember yelling "you're breaking the NAP" and things like that. "Stop initiating force against me." Then they kicked me around on the ground in the hallway, before they took my camera and threw me outside. I was crying and stuff, I just sat there. I was in shock because it was so sudden. Looking back there were warning signs though.

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 34 points 2 days ago (1 children)

lmao that story always cracks me up. Libertarians don't understand their own ideology or its history. Stolen from actual leftwing libertarians (who called themselves that after 'anarchist' was banned in several countries). Explicit rejection of empiricism. Claims "not real libertarianism" when bears take over their town.
