I am not doing a bit, it just has been baffling scrolling Hexbear then suddenly seeing a comment about the marketplace of ideas sorting everything out or whatever, and it’s always from someone with Lemmy in their name. They all seem like the Carl Diggler character Felix Biederman used to do, but more on-the-nose.
Because on their home instance, that’s the normal perspective. They wander in here, like a lost dog, thinking it’s their backyard, and start barking, expecting to get a chorus of howls in response but instead get told to shut up.
They’re not from here, their instance is full of other libs, and lib communities. They’re probably browsing their instance’s “All” feed and see these posts because someone from their instance has subscribed to !politics@hexbear.net. They have “lemmy” in their username because many of these instances have it in their domain name. lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.ee, etc. When our comments show up in their instance, the names have @hexbear.net on the end RedWizard@hexbear.net . Lemmy is a federated system, that means these sites are all interconnected, but otherwise their own self-contained ecosystem.
lemm.ee and sh.itjust.works posters are worse about it, regular lemmy.ml users have an even 50/50 between being on the cusp of getting it and being a liberal nutrag
Seriously, half the reason a lot of people like Trump is he’s a wacky, edgy, “outsider” who doesn’t give a fuck about decorum. Only nerd ass West Wing fans care that he’s a felon, for everyone else it just adds to his bad boy mystique.
Everyone also knows he’s done much worse things that he’ll never get punished for in any way. I don’t understand why Trump getting a slap on the wrist over some financial regulations is supposed to be some huge win.
Nobody cares about his felonies.
I don’t get this site, why does everyone with Lemmy in their username have weird BlueMAGA takes?
Not sure if you’re doing a bit, but they’re users from other Lemmy instances outside of Hexbear, and they usually have lib-ass takes.

Thank you
No problem comrade.

I mean, it makes sense, Hexbear has been around for years and chased away all of the libby-est of libs to the other instances (or back to reddit).
With federation, our instance’s posts can be seen by other instances and occasionally some brave soul will engage with it. It can be very jarring.
Untrue for lemmygrad specifically, they usually have better takes than hexbear tbh (sorry)

Liberals:
Be directly responsible for the murder of tens of thousands of innocent people, mostly women and children: I SLEEP
Commit a felony by not filling out the proper paperwork for usage of campaign funds: REAL SHIT
