(i.e. when it comes to casualties and many other things)

Obviously this is just kinda coming out of my ass, but I'm almost certain that 100,000 people have already died. Can't say what the exact number is obviously, but I imagine it's the kind of thing that the lib media would rather not release because it would dampen people's enthusiasm for it

By being 'slightly critical' you do mean complaining about homeless people, right?

Can you tell me more about this instance? I haven't seen it yet but you have me really worried and I think I might have to consider asking my instance's admins to defederate from it

I'm going to pretend this is being asked in good faith because even if it's not, there are people who probably are asking it in good faith.

Anyway, Hexbear has become visible recently because we began federating recently. The instance is not less than a month old, it's more than three years old, although it wasn't tracked by Fediverse Observer due to running on a forked version which had split from mainline Lemmy when the instance was created, which is why my account and many others have creation dates stretching back a relatively long way. Three years of posting on an instance made to replace a banned subreddit which had a lot of users is a recipe for having a lot of posts (shocking I know). If it looks to you like many of us have no comment history (or at least no comment history before a week or two ago), that's the result of some quirk of federation. When viewing the same profiles on Hexbear, their full often multi-year long history is visible.

Brigading is when a post shows up in your all tab and you comment on it

Maybe the US should start "bribing" with infrastructure projects then, I thought they were all about their soft power or whatever

Hexbear has never felt so united

Typical liberal mentality. Being uncivil to someone who is a legitimate danger to the lives of others is worse than actually putting people in danger

Well they apparently haven't defedded with Nazis, so that kinda indicates maybe they're into and wouldn't defed. On the other hand you know how libs can be (.world was more eager to defed us than they were with Nazis before)

Virtue signalling is when you think people starving is bad and the more you think people starving is bad the more virtue signallinger it is
