Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

I remember a post talking about federation with us and one comment (person 1) was saying they should just absorb our community completely. Someone (person 2) responded with basically "yeah they are probably not willing to do that" and gave a few examples pertaining to they difference is drama levels.
Que persona 2 getting Rabbidly attacked by person 1 in a very long comment chain that was literally the perfect example as to why we would want to stay separate. I didn't go back to Hexbear for a long while after that.
I once caught a back and forth like that. It was all about lemmy devs not wanting to implement hexbear's gender pronouns on avatars. It was a completely pointless discussion where one person was convinced that lemmy is run by bigots.
One of the things I dislike about hexbear is how US-centric people on there tend to be. Sometimes I feel like I'm on reddit due to the amount of identity politics, pop culture references and hyper-specific memes that only someone from the Empire would really get.
They better not absorb us, I don't even understand why they think we would even want that to happen in the first place!
Our admins will ban people like person 1 im not too worried
