Ask Lemmygrad

We already know of Hexbear's liberalism on many issues and their many, many liberal users. Fact is we're not doing a split over it because as the admins have said we don't defederate except from porn and open fascist instances.

Now could Hexbear throw a shit-fit and defederate from us? That I could see happening easily. There are numerous drama loving types there and there was that one big thread accusing us baselessly of bigotry because someone got moderated and took it personally to the point of stirring up trouble and calling names as well as for defederation.

I mean just looking at the comically ridiculous struggle sessions hexbears start among themselves it's almost amazing it hasn't happened already.

Warning, minor criticism incoming: There are far too many there that are given far too much ear from their admins in ways that further pointless and counterproductive in-fighting over nothings that exemplifies the do-nothing, always bickering western left. It's my second favorite instance after this one I want to be clear, I like a lot of the people there and I'm glad it exists but I do have my problems with it. People accuse MLs of being authoritarian (and so we are) and yet it's not us but the left unity instance that is constantly having people appeal to the authorities in the hierarchy (ironic) to settle this or that little tiff or disagreement and to impose sweeping changes on others and communities and so on as a result of someone calling to the admins with a convincing sob sorry or whatever. I mean look at the current struggle they have going on over their changes to their shitliberalssay type communities. Just a total disconnect from the masses of their site including long-time users who love that stuff. It's kind of funny to me but also kind of sad. As the old saying goes, it's a land of contrasts that Hexbear.
