They will find you and swarm if their “liberal senses” tingle from anywhere.
Found on a lemmy.zip post. These posts all happened within an hour of each other so there is definitely some coordination happening if not outright botting.
A perfect “You’ve alerted the horde” moment
I blocked the instance with Sync, yet I can still see their users comments on other threads. Is there any way to completely block it all? Other than moving instances I guess.
hexbear wants violent revolution and to them a nazi government they try to undermine is the best option for them
But if harris just as nazi what is the issue?

I’ve noticed this too, I’m pretty sure they keep an eye on people they’ve had previous run ins with. I blocked one and a few more of them presented themselves to receive their blocks, lol.
I think they have a comm dedicated to brigading. ‘The Dunk Tank’ or something like that.
One thing I’m confused about is I’m pretty sure I have hexbear.net instance blocked. I would think this should block all comments from hexbear NPCs also. Not sure why it isn’t.
Nope just blocks YOU from seeing their communities. You ultimately have to block them individually.
And even if you block them, they can still reply and downvote enmasse. You just won’t be able to see it.
Unfortunately handling those sort of things at the server level would add a lot of extra processing over what it currently does. Which for a democratized Federated and distributed system. Would be very tough.
Huh, interesting thread. I think I poke.
Why not show the responses? Obviously because there insane tankie responses promoting hamas and russia, not actual reasons Harris would be just as bad.
Also don’t you guys hate hexbear because they show posts which invites people to go brigade those posts and users?
Because they are long, spammy, all say the same thing (poorly formulated nonsense), but mostly because they are long and I wouldn’t be able to capture a screencap of their brigading if I expanded them all.
Hexbear has communities specifically designed to organize brigading of threads. We create posts to mock them in private and don’t engage in brigading.
I dislike Harris but nobody gains anything of value arguing over who they think will be worse. It’s the most pointless argument made up just so entitled folks living in a hyper-individualized society can feel like they’re correct.
I can tell you one thing though: Harris didn’t have a Project 2025 teed up and ready to go. But also who fucking cares? We’re now all stuck in this boat so let’s quit the leftist infighting and pissing contest. They all benefit from the same thing and they’re all the enemy of the working class. That’s the only knowledge we need.
Edit: seems people misunderstand my tone. The point is stop arguing over candidates in a country that has been in tailspin for years. Talk ideas, not people. We knew we were gonna get stuck with a Project 2025 eventually. That means Hexbear folks should stop coming out of the woodwork when someone mentions Harris, and people still favoring Harris are doing no one any favors. She lost and she wasn’t going to save anyone. And I shouldn’t even have to state how massive a piece of shit Trump is. Let’s move on from this childish bullshit already. They’re both trash (although maybe I should clarify whom I think sucks more so that I don’t get attacked by leftists that don’t understand how revolutionary discipline works).
But also who fucking cares?
I think you’ll find most of us fucking care. Because many of us have our fucking rights at fucking risk because some idiots decided Harris didn’t pass their fucking purity test so now we’re stuck with the fucking orange fuhrer.
There are people in my community I’ve had to talk down from committing suicide just yesterday due to the state our country is in because of policies that wouldn’t be in place if Harris had won.
You’re an idiot if you think Harris would have been worse for Palestine than Trump. The only knowledge I need is that my democracy won’t be put at risk by fucking leftist tankies who don’t have two braincells to rub together to differentiate between comparative outcomes.
You think your “bOtH SiDeS bAd” takes are so enlightened but you’re the problem bub.
I think you misunderstand where my “who cares” comment comes from. I care about the actual outcome (which is currently terrible as everyone predicted). I just think it’s a pointless thing to fight about. I don’t care about “both sides bad” crap. I care about what we’re going to do now that a fascist is here, and planning ahead for the worst.
The whole thing leading up to the election where people argued over who was worse was tiresome and divisive of people that should be aligned. Conservatives still voting for Trump are a lost cause but leftists have common ground and shouldn’t be wasting their time arguing over something that ultimately leads nowhere. They should be preparing for the worst case scenario as a unified front.
Fine let’s provide that united front next time Democrats put out a candidate that doesn’t check all the boxes. Even if it’s Harris running again.
That’s how it should’ve been, even if for nothing other than the symbolism. She doesn’t support Palestine, but no one they prop up ever will. Best we can do is keep applying pressure. We also need to run on the assumption that federal elections are a joke in the US at this point, and the Democrats aren’t going to do anything outside of upholding the status quo. Regardless, abstaining is pointless and multiple things can be true at once.
