Has anyone else noticed how prevalent Hexbear posters have suddenly become? Maybe sometime last week I noticed nearly every political post had at least one long thread of Hexbear users that do nothing but repeat CCP talking points while waving anyway anything even remotely reliable as Western propaganda. That or getting all excited about trolled libs. The way they tell it, you’d think everything from DW, to Fox, to Propublica, to straight up AP News articles, are all written by the same people.

Not to mention, their info on the Fediverse observer is either straight up wrong or there’s some serious botting going on. According to that, the instance is less than a month old, yet somehow they already have one of the largest, most active userbases, along with far and away the most comments of any instance.

Seems to me like Lemmygrad on steroids. Considering we defederated from them, seems like a no-brainer to block Hexbear as well.

So glad this thread could become such a perfect microcosm of why we need to defederate.

Casual Cannibal sandwich eaters unite!

(For the record I do not consume nor condone the consumption of those particular Midwestern treats)

That tater tot casserole is pretty good too, ngl. And easy to make vegan.

I’m more of a green bean casserole person, mainly because I make my own from scratch and go all-out making it as tasty as humanly possible.

Which means it’s incredibly unhealthy. But sacrifices must be made once in a while I suppose.
