Ya'll are expert brigaders, well done.

It's a frontpage post dumbass ๐Ÿ’€ we're not brigading we're just commenting on the post that appears on our feeds

[โ€“] MrSpArkle@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Yes, a swarm of tankies from the same instance(hexbear) descending upon the same thread with the same opinions, and spamming images, totally not brigading.

It literally isn't, and if you actually learned how federation works, rather than assuming everything works like reddit, you'd know that

It's a communist instance with very few other instances federated, what the fuck do you expect? The CPC doesn't give a shit about either of us, you aren't involved in some YA dystopia story by posting.

The only spam-like opinions I'm seeing are all the same stale old forms of apologia for the world-strangling US Empire, and the same old stale racism and homophobia from scratched liberals.

They're just a bunch of harmless china apologists. Pretend taiwan isn't a country and they'll leave you alone

So the DPR and LPR are independent countries, right?

"Yes, but if they invite allied troops into their country it stills counts as an invasion of Ukraine. What do you mean that isn't independence? "

Hey now. Don't be mean. We're not apologizing. We're cheerleading. Being the only country in the world to meaningfully reduce extreme poverty is a hell of a thing.
