I thought I knew what to expect after having experienced a deluge of takes on platforms like Reddit and Twitter, and yet, I was taken totally aback by some of the unhinged ones I've seen on here since the federation. From bog standard accusations of being bots or paid shills for disagreeing with them, to flat out disgusting claims that queer people on Hexbear are not really queer because they're not liberals.

I came to lemmy early in the reddit exodus, but too many god damn liberals came along and it's gradually getting worse. Hexbear has the only good anime community, so now I have to have another lemmy account

The lib hexbear experience is taking a seat in a cafeteria with a bunch of people to say the worst possible thing imaginable and the whole cafeteria stops to hold you accountable.

Hexbear's communication is like an artisanal dessert with a hard shell of irony/sarcasm coating that breaks to reveal a warm sincerity within, creating an interesting rhetorical flavor profile. The average internet liberal is an easy-bake salty and sour pudding that presents itself as a layer cake they saw on Food Network once.

Had a moment of online culture shock when I recently saw people commenting on how gross eating ass is and assertions that all the talk about it is people being ironic and joking. Someone even had the gall to respond with “haha keep telling yourself that buddy” when someone said that people have been eating ass forever! Have you heard of the romans??

It’s so jarring to suddenly crash into a totally different culture like that. Like you ran into a caveman at the grocery store

Oh it's bad, funny, but eye opening for sure.

Lemmy did the turn to shit any% speedrun to become a liberal shithole.

I really don't want to think about the timeline we don't get preemptively dropped from lemmy.world now.
