Sorry (🍁) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several complaints we defederated from hexbear.net yesterday.

Here's a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users:

Spamming bullshit links to the pig poop picture: https://lemmy.ca/u/AccountVerificationBot@hexbear.net
General trolling: https://lemmy.ca/comment/2146513
Posting the pig poop emoji repeatedly and not adding value to discussions: https://lemmy.ca/u/duderium@hexbear.net https://lemmy.ca/u/Sasuke@hexbear.net
Calling for exections of landlords: https://lemmy.ca/comment/2154580

They warned their users to behave themselves, but that didn't work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

Please read and respect the rules of the community instance in which you are posting/commenting. Please try to keep the dirtbag lib-dunking to hexbear itself. Do not follow the Chapo Rules of Posting, instead try to engage utilizing informed rhetoric with sources to dismantle western propaganda. Posting the western atrocity propaganda and pig poop balls is hilarious but will pretty quickly get you banned and if enough of us do it defederated. Realize that you are a representative of the hexbear instance when you post on other instances.

Can't believe I need to say this but yes the Holocaust happened, and it was bad.

Prussian blue is also used in medicine, did you know that? I am a pharmacy student. There's quite a few reasons I like the name. Holocaust denial is not one of them. I also watched the Myles Power video.

Also I'll never understand why non-rightoids can't use kek, it comes from Korean to English via WoW.

Not sure who Myles Powers is, but I am glad that you're not a garbage person.

The reason why non-rightoids don't use "top kek" is because it's from 4chan. "kek" is from Wow, but "top kek" isn't.

Much like other phrases and symbols (like the Celtic cross, odal rune, swastika), once the racists use it to identify themselves, the non-racists shy away from using it.

Myles Powers is a youtuber who has a pretty popular set of videos regarding the Leuchter report.

Also, I'm still not sure I care it's from 4chan given how benign the actual etymology is, comparing it to the swastika is honestly pretty reductive if not outright offensive imo, but whatever.
