Examples? There are literally hundreds across the !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works community, the largest anti-tankie community. It documents hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse for purposes such as these.
Here are some examples of Hexbear users and how they interact with the rest of the fediverse and how they treat others:
Denying while simultaneously justifying the genocides perpetrated by the USSR and Mao’s China
Also celebrating the systematic rape of women during the 7th of October massacres
Tankies take pride in being included with neo-nazi websites 8kun and Stormfront
One of the many posts regularly celebrating the 7th of October Massacres
Mourning the death of Hezbollah’s leader, calling him a ‘hero of humanity’
The admins encourage users to manipulate threads and troll using alts
Dehumanising the victims of the 7th of October massacres
Hexbear admins posting and celebrating Stalin
Fantasising about how they want to kill people
Racism towards muslim minorities in China
Celebrating the Twin Towers collapsing
Calls for genocide over Sinwar’s death
Calling for the death of everyone
Regularly calling every user Hitler
Calling the gulags a good thing
Again celebrating the massacre
Telling Jews to return to gulags
There are hundreds more examples, but you get the gist. These are truly deplorable people.
Closely related are the Lemmy developers themselves.
Here are the Lemmy developers calling transgender people ‘biological men’
Denying it quite often, actually
These trolls have never added anything of substance to any instance and only use your instance so they can harass and troll your own userbase, as evident inside this very thread. It’s not about not seeing their content. It’s more so why would you want to see their content? Does the above, the bigotry, the genocide, the celebration of violence and unending hatred truly have a place on jlai.lu? What does that say to your standards and your user’s wishes?

The Lemmy developers have an obvious bias, and it shows every single time. I don’t trust these people to be developing Lemmy and they certainly shouldn’t be the heads of the project.
