1 month agoGetting closer and closer to that! The reason I made this post to begin with is to do a PSA, because it took me months of being subscribed to games on Hexbear to notice it’s not a leftist community as it presents itself, but authoritarian communist. So I can’t be certain all of their users are in the know, but is it worth keeping the instances unblocked if the bad outweighs the possibility of good?
There’s been an uptick of downvotes and new users leaving critical comments since the Hexbear thread linking this one. Though Hexbear is defederated from .world, I’m pretty sure that if you examine the downvotes, you’re going to find barely active alt accounts of users from Hexbear. There’s one who literally quoted a point from that thread.
Edit: Also of note is that after they made that thread, they revisited the Ukraine thread from 10 months ago and removed my comments individually to make them harder to access. They know no reasonable person reading them is going to come to their conclusion that I’m a “fascist sympathizer” for essentially siding with Ukraine. Thankfully, they have no control over the Web Archive version also found at the OP link.
