So I joined lemmy.world when reddit shot itself in the snoo and thought it was great. But the decision to defederate from hexbear because of political disagreements over NATO etc just seems over the top.

In the comments of the announcement that admins posted the overwhelming consensus seems to be people think it's a bad move. Few comments in support of it. Other threads have popped up says can we vote on things like this?

Here's how I'm voting: fuck Lemmy.world I'm deleting my account. I got no time for more 'centrist' authoritarians.

Welcome comrade, this is the grad, take a red flag and raise it high, and carry the instance tag with pride.

Welcome comrade!

As others asked over there, why not Lemmygrad too? If they do defederate from LG they'll have a toxic echo chamber that will just become another Reddit/Stormfont that will suck more and more as time goes on. I kind of want to see that happen, something else will take dotworld's place before too long.

Lemmygrad is smaller and the feds that have a stake in .world like to use it as a gate to jump in and harass us because we are smaller, more vulnerable to their attacks, and easier to deal with when we cross into their territory.

Hexbear is huge, even more active, and have tons of experience with struggle sessions and bullying liberals. Not that some of our comrades aren't great at taking the fight to them but, as I said, it's a numbers issue. Libs and feds tend to only like to pick fights with groups smaller than them if they can. Because they are cowards.

If you have any questions you can go to !communism101@lemmygrad.ml and people will reply in good faith any doubts that you have. I hope you have a good time!

Power trip, maybe. But it is just a nature from Lemmy. It will rip apart itself eventually.

Welcome comrade!

So what's the plan now? Will Hexbear federate with another instance?

[-] manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

there's a post about it on hexbear, well a few posts

I think it means Lemmy.world wont be able to access hexbear and vice versa. laughable that Lemmy.world were going to give meta a chance.
