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 [https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list] 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.

Omg are you saying there might be tankies??????

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

I am very afraid of tankies. Ever since I visited Hexbear, I see them everywhere now. One time, I saw the English alphabet in class (I am in kindergarten). As I looked over the alphabet, I found a startling sight. My eyes darted from letter to letter: T-A-N-K-I-E. I almost sh*t my pants. I fucking hate tankies.

My mom started an OnlyFans account. I’ve no idea why. It’s not like we need the money. Dad was in the tech sector and made lots of investments before he passed so we’re very financially stable.

She posted about it for all the family and friends to see. I confronted her and based my arguments against her actions in Kant’s Categorical Imperative. After half an hour she still wasn’t understanding the concept and was just in tears that I wasn’t being supportive.

I told her alright look, imagine things in terms of universal actions. So you should consider whether the act of subscribing to your OnlyFans is something you’d want to see all men in the world undertake, i.e. me, your own son. Obviously this renders it immoral since it fails Kant’s Categorical Imperative.

Now she just think that I’m trying to make an elaborate argument that justifies me subscribing to her OnlyFans because I’m a perv and she starts crying whenever she sees me. She’s threatened that I’ll have to move out but I think it’s a bluff.

I’m giving up on invoking the Categorical Imperative and need some other moral arguments. Unfortunately I’ve spent the last seven years of my life pretty much exclusively reading Kant and secondary sources on Kant, so I don’t have a good grasp on non-Kantian morality.

Any help would be appreciated.
