Thankfully those of us on world have not had to deal with them for the better part of a year. There's so much wrong there it's kind of hard to know where to begin.
All I will really say for now is that they are perfect anti advocates for the things at the surface level they advocate for.
.world was never federated with hexbear, .world defederated "preemptively, as a last resort"
This perception is common on .world because some liberals have been lying about hexbear to encourage censoring the left even before then.
For all you people out there in TV land, this user is a serial shitposter who deliberately misinterprets everything they read. Very "oh you like waffles? Just admit you hate pancakes" behavior. It goes without saying that this interpretation is disingenuous at best.
I’m not sure if the “this interpretation” reference is about the “preemptive defederation as a last resort” or the “lying” bit, but the first doesn’t need an interpretation because it was stated in the post:
The “lying” bit.. I’m not sure where that comes from. It’s not the best “informed rhetoric,” that’s for sure.
The most obvious lie being claiming that hexbear was federated with lemmy.world and were just so awful they had to be defederated.
