I know I’m not in trouble, but I do feel bad that I’m probably the reason blahaj.zone will defederate with hexbear. I just thought they had an insane take on what hexbear was and posted it in the_dunk_tank. I included a link because I am not a 
but also I am a and so are all of you and I’m sorry for that as well.
lol, i saw that. they were describing this place as an alt right instance and believed our pronouns were all ironic.
definitely feeds into the trope that liberals are baffled by positions outside the window of their indoctrination and the first impulse of many is to try to cram into one of the two slots that exist in their worldview.
“post-colonial theory”
“is this right wing propaganda?”Blahaj was always going to defed us. From the beginning they were more committed to the red scare stuff than even /r/196 was.
i mentioned this wayyy back in my comment history, but am too lazy to dig it up.
don’t sweat it if you end up being the excuse for them. This was all predetermined.
It’s weird because I seen some Blahaj users who seem to be pretty alright.
They are. People here shit on them and the 196ers, but there are some genuinely good and funny people there. The shitposty culture is pretty compatible with hexbear.
It’s more of a mod culture thing where they allow constant posts about routing out the red menace, but when you speak up and mention that kind of posting is meant to break movements, you’re a “tankie.”
I just hope, over time, the funny people will start to get sick of the tankie paranoia, and come chill in our cozy unity space.
the 196 mods are very bad, the admin is also not great but less explicitly anticommunist. The users are mostly not so bad.
196 is the one and only community I blocked. But I feel it reflects very poorly on their instance that the mods are allowed to ban leftists with impunity.
I actually just found out today that they defederated with us anyway. So good riddance. Plenty of people here and on lemmygrad to be queer with.
Come one, 196 has some great memes :(
It’s also a hive of chasers
Aren’t they all children? Like the meme was “between 19 and 6” because their poll showed they were all under 20
That’s just another reason to not want to be federated with them for me
If I wanted to talk to kids on the internet I’d be a libertarian
As if the knowledge that it’s a space made up of trans minors + chasers makes it any better
