Possibly, I didn't look where they're all from, nor do I know what hexbear is or why it's significant. Sounds like some kind of intra-Lemmy drama which I'm not too interested in. Just noticed a fair amount, lets say........not totally organic, seemingly agenda pushing comments.

Edit: Forget my previous comment. I now see the problem with Hexbear.

agenda pushing is when people have an opinion that doesn't align with my own

No it's when there's mysteriously dozens of comments just magically showing up that are contrary to the vastly popular opinion on only one contentious issue, that serve the best interests of an entity with the time, resources to try to sway public opinion through fake grassroots posting. Also that entity has a fragile ego and a long history of online manipulation.......oh and also coincidentally they are all coming from the same server

Vastly popular opinion held by whom?

Anyone with half a brain can see what's going on. I'm not playing these silly obfuscation games. You're bad at what you do.

Yes, anyone with half a brain can see that people from a leftist instance are contributing leftist opinions to a space they just federated with. What were you expecting?

From the largest lemmy instance before reddit did the thing. Weird, huh.

Your chauvinism is showing brah

Least deranged response after being confronted with the existential horror that capitalism causes within us and being asked to cast it aside, choosing instead to bathe in the waters of the imperial core like the river of Styx, forgetting anything else exists, freeing oneself of responsibility for their fellow human, untethered by compassion and hope for the future

Yes, anybody with half a brain can see that you have paranoid delusions.

if I had 1/8th a brain I could think like you

[–] [email protected] 36 points 2 years ago

you seem mad, what's the issue?

[–] [email protected] 35 points 2 years ago

Insult that has no tether to the topic at hand, inline with your other comments that just make vague allusions that could be applied to any topic. Found the bot.

my brain is medically broken right now and even I can see that you're a paranoid weirdo.
