I wish lemm.ee would block Hexbear. Fuck capitalism, but those people are nuts. They make MAGAts look good.
EDIT: I used to be an active member of /r/LateStageCapitalism until I left reddit for good, but go ahead and keep assuming things about me.
no we don't, you're just mad you aren't the noblest position possible and you lash out at us when we critique you from the left.
Uh no. Quit putting words in my mouth.
See my reply to the person you just replied to, cause I don't feel like typing this shit out twice.
But you expect everyone to read your bullshit (which I did BTW). Hypocrite.
Uh what? I have no idea what any of that means.
I just don't like Hexbear cause they claim to be communists yet constantly talk shit about liberals. Only MAGAts and Hexbear users hate liberals.
I miss /r/LateStageCapitalism, a community made of actual communist liberals, unlike Hexbear which is just full of rage baiting trolls. But I'll never go back to reddit again.
"Communist liberal" is incoherent nonsense. Liberalism is a capitalist ideology that promotes private ownership of the means of production, communism subsequently doesn't, they are contradictory ideologies.
Things are not so black and white. It's possible to like ideas from both sides, without having to fully subscribe to a single idealogy.
There is no third way in this context, either you want workers to own the means of production or you want Capitalists to. Liberals want Capitalists to, and some liberals want Capitalists to own less, but see no overall problem with the current relationship between workers and their exploited labor. Communists want workers to own the means of production by contrast, these are opposing ideologies.
yeah magat... what trump supporters want universal healthcare, decommodification of housing, defunding the police, defunding the military, open borders, free college, and to send american war criminals to stand trial at the hague or in the countries they committed their crimes against?
how illiterate do you have to be to hear what socialists want and think "yeah they support trump"?
It's funny how for those who Hexbear is to their left, always use the critique of "they're crazy" then compare us to right wingers without fail.
Absolutely no actual critique and the typical liberal understanding of politics that "there are only two teams, and if you're not on mine then you're on theirs"
Please read a book
Thats because a lot of lemmy users see right wing as being evil.
The reality is the right is not evil. Supporting genocidal dictators like Stalin and Mao is.
The great leap forward.
Here, read this. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2016/08/03/giving-historys-greatest-mass-murderer-his-due/
He sourcing from a book fairly widely discredited by academics. Adding on to the wildly discredited notion that the Soviet famine was intentional. Like this is literally cold war propaganda people were paroting in the 80s. Embarrassing
Adding on to the wildly discredited notion that the Soviet famine was intentional
The fuck, have you ever heard of the Holodomor? Family members of people I know had people die of hunger because russian soldiers would confiscate all their food right before winter. Sick fucks.
And this kinda shit is why it was a waste of everyones time for hexbear to federate with everyone. All you do is deny genocide and post poopy pig balls.
God I am glad that emojis are broken right now. I never want to see more poopy pig balls, especially from people who lib is the far right.
liberals have universally allied with fascists over communists. the liberals in the Weimer Republic put Hitler in power, to give but one example. Churchill admired Hitler.
Both liberals and fascists agree that capitalism is the bee's knees, they agree that most things should be privatized, they agree that people must be exploited by an elite. There's a common saying - "If you scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds," meaning that the second you exert even the slightest violence towards liberals or threaten to do so, they suddenly turn into fascist monsters, seemingly out of nowhere! Macron in France is a good current-day example - the riots have prompted him to turn France into ever more of a police state in which the pigs have unbelievable powers and surveillance. When America has been provoked by actions (many of which didn't even actually happen, e.g. the Gulf of Tonkin, the Nayirah testimony, etc (or those that did happen but didn't need to provoke an entire invasion in response, like 9/11) they start wars that kill hundreds of thousands, even millions.
It's actually hard to describe exactly where liberals and fascists have opposing beliefs sometimes. I suppose where they differ is whether the cruelty should be more obscured or more out in the open? But you have to understand, the political dichotomy isn't and has never been "liberal vs conservative", because of those are on the side of the bourgeoisie in the class war. It's communists vs capitalists, and liberal, conservatives, fascists, even the more left-wing people in the American establishment like Warren and Bernie are on the side of the capitalists. We hold fundamental political beliefs that differ from liberals. Liberals do not differ in fundamental political beliefs from fascists. It's also why accusations of "horseshoe theory" are so hilarious to us.
especially from people who lib is the far right
Liberalism has always allied themselves with the far-right as an ideology that protects capital. We just know this because we read/study theory and have kept up with things going on around the world what with "liberals" and the "right" being quite similiar in views, especially recently. That being said,
:horsepoo-theory:
Bigot
No, not really. You guys have just made it insanely easy to identify yourselves. I always double check to make sure it's hexbear.net, don't worry.
I wish it didn't block them. I can block individual instances and the instance of commenters is in plain view, just block them as you encounter them if they come of as too strong. They have some decent communities where sometimes there's interesting things to read. Basically only some of the LGTB ones but yeah.
And also blocks the word "removed".
Try it if you don't believe me and have a Lemmy.world account.
How exactly is "active" measured?
Logged in? Commenting? Posting? Net time spent on Lemmy?
I feel like the metrics need to be a bit more refined to actually make a qualified statement.
I cross posted this because I felt like it somehow belonged here. Now I see your point, I look at the site and nothing state how are computed the metrics, this should be clarified in my opinion (now the stat site is open source so you can check yourself if you want).
Oh I didn't mean to criticise you posting it, just wanted to question the source. Sorry if it came across that way.
it's just active user metrics, otherwise hexbear is top of the charts
Didn't they defederate from some large instances until they get better moderation tools?
They are on the federation, and lemm.ee is still federated with them. They defederated from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works because they're a bit particular and didn't have the mod tools they wanted. They were never federated with hexbear.
I switched off of world because I got tired of my feed only working about 30% of the time. It had been extremely normal, to the point where I can't recall the last bit of downtime. Don't underestimate the ability to actually view content on lemmy as a driving factor here...
predicatble: lemm.ee is reliable: on the other hand shi.tjust.doesn't.work, and feddit.de has that walled garden beehaw vibe to it (tight moderation). i would predict discuss.tchncs.de would grow if it maintains good uptime record. also external factors could affect ranking like legal prosecutions when caching illegal content and ddos'es, like the other instances cant do much about those either
and for good reason. Very stable instance especially in comparison to Lemmy.world
I migrated from lemm.ee a little while ago. I really liked it, but it got too popular and I'm hipster. So I gotta be unique with my new cool club instance, literature.cafe
Are Beehaw and Hexbear counted too? I feel like they probably would appear before feddit.de but maybe I am wrong.
hexbear has ~1k users per month. we top the charts in comment volume but not users.
That's pretty much where we used to be on Reddit, like ~100k users, but top 20 most active or something like that lol
I think it's really cool that feddit.de has that much activity, I expected it to be far smaller than many others!
