Since I was using this to write a little defederation thing on which instances find hexbear so repulsive they had to defederate I noticed the number from exploding-heads go up quite a bit from the 75 to 170 now. I will make it a point to call out two specific instances for being hilariously disgusting feddit.de aka the german federation, and feddit.dk both defederated hexbear but didn't defed the outright nazi instance exploding-heads earlier today, class act from the german and danish mod team.
Also apparently they were aware of it two months ago but didn't chose to act until today which yeah class act from the german admins. https://feddit.de/post/1151473?scrollToComments=true
There's a cheap dark joke in there somewhere about Germans and Nazis
I live in Germany and can guarantee it's not a joke. Antifa is very much needed here.
Yeah a lot of germans are full on which is incredibly bleak because the SPD is full on let's cut the education budget in half in fact we need to do so much austerity, Linke is well Linke. So yeah, I hate german libs a lot but I feel so sorry for my german comrades.
What's up with Linke? Anything particularly spicy?
I don't know if I want to harp on them too much, die Linke is pretty much only a thing in eastern germany. The west germany has basically suppressed them heavily, first by what some historians would call a 'colonization' of east germany due to just how fucking bad reunification was for eastern germany, as well as deliberate neglect by western germany letting the situation spiral out of control. A lot of Die Linke politicians were also illegally surveilled and harassed and were often smeared as red fash using horseshoe theory stuff.
This leads us to now where they just suck like they are to the left similar to how AOC is to the left of Biden unable/unwilling to do anything so they'll keep losing ground to the AfD they'll not get anywhere.
I knew they were supposedly the successor party to the ruling party of the GDR so of course they were beaten down and became moderates.
They've slowly bled voters because they spent the last couple years with infighting and are now about to split into a pro-imperialist ineffectual radlib wing and a transphobic social reactionary wing, which may lead to both new parties being too weak to make it into parliament any longer
Isn't Germany's antifa infested with antideutsch crazies?
You mean vigilante-style attacks on healthband life because you oppose their world view? You Germans have come full circle.
Enlightened German centrism.
As far as I can see, feddit has always had exploding-heads defedded? https://fba.ryona.agency/?reverse=feddit.de
feddit.de blocks exploding heads.
By and large feddit.de is to the left of /r/de which was already center-left.
...but whatever fits your narrative, I guess.
obviously a mistake?
Not checking easily verifiable information when going on a "muh they block tankies but not nazis" rant, essentially accusing the instance itself of being a Nazi cesspit, doubly sus when doing it to a German instance, is quite a mistake, yes.
Also: Just checked, feddit.dk also blocks exploding heads. Both at least since 2023-06-15 (as per fba.ryona.agency). So two out of two wrong, nice, "but didn’t defed [...] exploding-heads earlier today" wrong, nice, that's framed as if he just checked "earlier today", and a fellow hexbear giving moral support to spreading malicious gossip instead of calling it out. And then you folks ask why people don't like you.
I know why you specifically don't like us lol. I recognize your username from the constant long arguments with hexbear users I see you get into.
You make a point that you have no idea what you are talking about but spread missinformation.
The post you are referring to was a federated cross-post, besides that archive.org from 2 month ago proves you are wrong:

Exploding heads looks fucking dead lol why bother?
