Possibly, I didn't look where they're all from, nor do I know what hexbear is or why it's significant. Sounds like some kind of intra-Lemmy drama which I'm not too interested in. Just noticed a fair amount, lets say........not totally organic, seemingly agenda pushing comments.

Edit: Forget my previous comment. I now see the problem with Hexbear.

To make you angry

Tencent owns sizeable pieces (and outright owns) of more companies than you can imagine.

Lots of suspicious comments in this thread. Seems like political astro-turfing has already arrived on Lemmy

I didn't differentiate so I don't see how that's relevant. My comment stands either way even if I did.

Who cares? As liberal I'm sick of the mellow-dramatic outrage culture. People aren't perfect. Who knew? If you don't use brave what's the alternative? Google, who is much worse? Maybe "don't let perfect be the enemy of good" and stop using the lefts social capital to alien people over small personal gripes.

I notice people who write these types of articles never open themselves to the same sort of scrutiny.

I saw some not long after replying to you. I still feel like it's way less than people talk about though.

I've literally never once seen porn on Lemmy despite everyone constantly talking about it.

I'm honestly quite happy mods are being removed. Reddit has had major problems for years and their moderators are HUGE part of it. The sooner the old mods go the better. I bet OP has removed hundreds or even thousands of posts and users with impunity and no second thoughts. They are only upset now that the same treatment they have given out so freely has now happened to them. It's really poetic justice in my opinion.
