The last few posts made here, they've shown up, made the most inane, idiotic, and pointless comments, upvoted each other in a frenzy of circle jerking, and generally made a pest of themselves.

They're a nuisance, and add nothing of value to the Lemmy experience.

This would be one of the funnier defederation reasons so I support it on behalf of hexbear

I never thought something so lukewarm would provoke such a response.

Who they choose to federate with is totally their choice, and I'm sure that - despite any protestation from my behalf that it's a functionality spurious label - I'll be branded a tankie, so probably going against the Code of Conduct here.

Shame that I'll no longer see content from my cousins across the ditch if they do split, but them's the breaks I guess.

We are making contingency plans for Operation I-Kiwi Freedom.

Fuck off, we're talking about you, not to you.

I was browsing new, and it's just very silly so I had to comment. I'm not being inflammatory so it's OK.

It's the "nazi bar" analogy, they're not here to engage in good faith, they're here to cause trouble. They don't deserve the courtesy of civil discourse.

The only person in this thread that's not engaging in good faith and trying to cause trouble is you.

Bull. Shit.

So tired of you Hexbear jerks and your authoritarian propaganda. No you didn't "just find this", your brigading like you always do.

[–] primbin@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

I saw comments on this post from like, 3 different hexbear users, which is a far cry from a brigade.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

[–] Ilovethebomb -2 points 1 year ago

Tankies don't deserve courtesy.
