    Their users are often overly entitled by this, spread hate, engage in brigading and censor people when they don’t agree with them.

    It is mandatory to mention that while I said the above, there is probably a good portion of them who aren’t like that. They’re just the silent majority.

      How do you determine if something counts as “brigading” vs just being federated? Moreover, I have no idea what you’re counting as “spreading hate.”

        https://jlai.lu/comment/13530572 (For your first question)

        Some isolated users are very vocal when there’s a discussion about their instances. Happened in a discussion about defederation of hexbear in my instance. Wasn’t there but it lead to both instances being defederated from us

            For sure, the core of hexbear and lemmygrad isn’t brigading, but it happened enough so that people are fed up of it

              Or, like I think, it’s just friction from opposing viewpoints and federation naturally cropping up.

              It literally never happens. You just continue to not understand how federation works

                I’m not specifically saying you’re making a post and collectively jumping on a train to shit on us. It could also be that some users just search for political posts close to their beliefs or posts about their instance and only interact with those

                It still feels Iike the only time you pop on threads, it goes wrong, and you are always seen in the same type of threads

                  No, that is what you’re saying. That’s what Brigading means

        I’m not going to start the whole thread again. Here is the reason we say this: https://jlai.lu/comment/13508125

        (Sry I only have a link to my instance)

        When you go out of your instance, it’s to argue about political opinions

            I guess you didn’t read what I wrote

            You can read my comment history. I’m sure you can check that I’m not only talking about politics and not always defending one side

                Ah yes, when you don’t have any arguments, use sarcasm and irony to make your opponent look like a fool. Classic.

                  Given that you’ve just resorted to post-hoc redefining words as you go, you’re really in no position to say other people don’t have arguments.
