Any other instances like lemmy world, which have blocked deranged instances like hexbear? (lemm.ee)

Surprised lemmy.ml hasn't defederated that instance, given the massive amount of brigading, racism and blatant misinformation that their users encourage.

lemmy.world, while much saner, does have its drawbacks. Anyone know of any similar instances that I can join?

It is so obviously a troll instance that I have a hard time assuming that your question is not in bad faith

Haven’t bothered looking at it. All I’ve seen from comments is it’s a bunch of people confused about their gender and they hate “libs”.

their they/them tags are a blatant mockery of trans people. they're nothing more than a nuisance and are best contained in their echo chamber, where they can do whatever it is they do but to each other

Hexbear gives all users options to specify their pronouns, and is very pro-trans and lgbtq. Do your research before making such claims!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't know if this is satire or not... But just incase it isn't: no, they aren't pro trans or pro lgbtq. They purposely pick those pronouns and go around to post racist stuff, bigotry, chinese propoganda and all the accompanying junk. Typical online terrorism.

I'm definitely not a fan of hexbear, but half of their staff is queer/trans.

And I haven't see any racist and bigoted posts from Hexbear users. Care to supply proof?

Here's an image and link to their Code of Conduct, to which the first two rules are literally:

We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.

Do not use homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, and other reactionary aliases or other nicknames. "Ironic" prejudice is just prejudice.

So, unless you'd like to supply some proof, from my own anecdotal and hard evidence, they seem to support the LGBTQ community and use pronouns to show respect.

Weird. Maybe they themselves have defederated from my instance as I never see any of their posts.
