Sorry (🍁) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several
complaints we defederated from hexbear.net [http://hexbear.net] yesterday.
Here’s a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users: - Spamming
bullshit links to the pig poop picture:

[https://lemmy.cas/u/AccountVerificationBot@hexbear.net] - General trolling:
https://lemmy.ca/comment/2146513 [https://lemmy.ca/comment/2146513] - Posting
the pig poop emoji repeatedly and not adding value to discussions:

[/u/Sasuke@hexbear.net] [https://lemmy.ca/u/Sasuke@hexbear.net] - Calling for
exections of landlords: https://lemmy.ca/comment/2154580
[https://lemmy.ca/comment/2154580] They warned their users to behave themselves,
but that didn’t work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

Please try to keep the dirtbag lib-dunking to hexbear itself. Do not follow the
Chapo Rules of Posting, instead try to engage utilizing informed rhetoric with
sources to dismantle western propaganda. Posting the western atrocity propaganda
and pig poop balls is hilarious but will pretty quickly get you banned and if
enough of us do it defederated. Realize that you are a representative of the
hexbear instance when you post on other instances.
Looks like we upset a few too many residents over at lemmy.ca. I didn’t see a post about this on here, so I thought I’d go ahead and make one.
2 of 4 reasons why are basically just PPB lol, and a third is for calling for executions of landlords
I do see that lemmygrad is more aligned to some ML types, while hexbear is a bit wider, which does make for a difference. But it doesn’t seem the strain of communism is the main problem for the de-federating people.
However we have a more diverse set of opinions in our user base, since we don’t ban people that quick (i.e. in terms of war in Russia we have some revolutionary defeatists, some anti imperialists who favour a weakening of the imperialist NATO (which really irks other instance admins, etc.).
To moderate a sub sub sub comment of a main thread is a bit funny though.
