And we shouldn't allow this concept to go unchallenged here on Lemmy.

Commenting on an active post is not brigading

Posting a link to something is not brigading

Commenting on something you were linked to is not brigading

The only thing that might be brigading, but isn't because it isn't a real thing, is someone explicitly going, "Hey everyone, go here and harass this person"

It's all fine and good that we have some new rules to keep the peace with other instances but we must fight against reddit-logo brainworms

    I like how they're also preloading some arguements that if the vote is to stay federated, it's hexbears voting with socks. Then the admin says they'll adjust how the totals are counted until it seems legit to them.

    If hexbear users are fired up enough to vote tamper, it's going to be for defed, because they don't particularly like blahaj.

      Ah yes, my favorite liberal democracy move, adjusting the totals until it 'makes sense'.
