No Hexbear isn’t brigading you I’m clicking on the main page of the website and replying to whatever I see. I don’t even know what website I’m on, I have ADHD, I aint got the kind of focus. Anyway I’m going to go brigade a thread about video games with my pro-FFXIV propaganda.

      Fuck off is it.

      What liberals call “brigading” is just when people share content they dislike and then show up and complain about it.

      Liberals have NO PROBLEM with people sharing content that they like, and then showing up and praising it.

      The entire function of the word “brigading” is to prevent people from sharing content if they will show up with critical or opposing views to that content. It is literally just “don’t share our content with other people if you disagree with us/it, only share our content with people if you agree with us/it”.

      The action is simply sharing the content. You apply a different word to it when it’s in disagreement compared to agreement. The aim of which is to suppress opposition and disagreement.

      Democrat liberals use “brigading” the same way republican liberals use “cancel culture”. It is a tool deployed to attack people to your left whenever they disagree with something. Demlibs and Replibs use all the same tools as one another, they just call them different names, like “tankie” deployed by Demlibs against the left has exactly the same function as “woke” deployed by Replibs against their left. You can translate all of these tactics leftwards down the pipeline.

      What you are doing right now? Most of your crowd would call it brigading if we showed up in one of your threads and did the exact same thing.

      (bots?)

      You didn’t get a single response from “bots” either lmao. Why are you all like this? Why do you assume people disagreeing with you must be bots? All of them are longterm well liked users here. Take off your fucking tinfoil hat.

          Suddenly your five person community starts getting bombarded with people from another instance that all seem to have a very different culture and it totally kills the conversation that was happening there before.

          If that’s a problem why would they federate with instances hundreds of times their size? If you want your tiny community and don’t want other people commenting there, don’t federate!

              Then operate on an allow list and only federate with people you want to federate with? Why are you acting like anyone has ever suddenly been bombarded by hexbear comments without first deciding to either federate specifically with us or to federate with everyone? You realize you’re literally just making up a lie right?
