    Have any of these people who hate this website so bad been posting screenshots where hexbear users are actually "distorting" or whatever they said? Are their instances full of screenshots from the mega where someone says the kulaks deserved it or something?

    I'm asking because it seems like it's all just vibes

      Typically they misrepresent heavily what people say, or make themselves be out to be victims. Like the US soldier who claimed he was attacked for stuff, but turns out people just said he was scum for serving in the imperialist military.

      In this case however it seems to be both a bit misleading context and them not understanding that Carcosa was quoting from the linked article (since most people don't read linked sources):

      The post with the screenshot: https://lemm.ee/post/9279694

      The post in which Carcosa did post: https://lemmy.ml/post/5413589?scrollToComments=true

      This is one of the comments in the thread Carcosa posted. Sounds for me like a bit of holocaust denial and implying Russia is committing an organized Nazi like genocide.

      @Burn_The_Right@lemmy.world
      Hey families, come on over to our um… kids camp… and while you’re here, can you help us inspect our walk-in ovens? Does is smell like a gas leak in there?

      That however isn't made out to be a problem by lemm.ee or lemmy.world users.

      However equating Nazis with Russian officials is common:

      Imagine if Goebbels told you, as a Jew that if you wanted your kids back all you had to do was travel to Berlin. Pinky promise! Of course you wouldn’t even give it a second to consider. You would know it was complete bullshit.

      Which also ignores that plenty of parents did actually get together with their kids and died in camps together. Not only Janusz Korczak.

      To contrast look at the thread in which the Italian state targets children of our LGBTQ* comrades and allies: https://lemmy.ml/post/3689846?scrollToComments=true

      Again since political vocabulary is very limited or leading those things are not a problem for lemm.ee I do understand why Carcosa is quoting as much from the article (though ">" makes stuff more easy to read), but I disagree with their content. I do also understand that the fight to not trust Western propaganda against Russia during war times often leads to more correct takes. Still doesn't cancel out the fake news and organized propaganda by some lemm.ee users and alike.
