They’re laughable. I’ve gotten like 30 replies to 1 comment and then they say “You seem mad” Yes…I’m the mad one. 🙄

It would appear that way yes…and as mentioned, they have a history of having extremely thin skin and doing exactly that. So do I expect some group to do the exact thing they have always done? Yes. Yes I do.

Anyone with half a brain can see what’s going on. I’m not playing these silly obfuscation games. You’re bad at what you do.

No it’s when there’s mysteriously dozens of comments just magically showing up that are contrary to the vastly popular opinion on only one contentious issue, that serve the best interests of an entity with the time, resources to try to sway public opinion through fake grassroots posting. Also that entity has a fragile ego and a long history of online manipulation…oh and also coincidentally they are all coming from the same server

Possibly, I didn’t look where they’re all from, nor do I know what hexbear is or why it’s significant. Sounds like some kind of intra-Lemmy drama which I’m not too interested in. Just noticed a fair amount, lets say…not totally organic, seemingly agenda pushing comments.

Edit: Forget my previous comment. I now see the problem with Hexbear.

Lots of suspicious comments in this thread. Seems like political astro-turfing has already arrived on Lemmy

I saw some not long after replying to you. I still feel like it’s way less than people talk about though.

I’ve literally never once seen porn on Lemmy despite everyone constantly talking about it.

I’m honestly quite happy mods are being removed. Reddit has had major problems for years and their moderators are HUGE part of it. The sooner the old mods go the better. I bet OP has removed hundreds or even thousands of posts and users with impunity and no second thoughts. They are only upset now that the same treatment they have given out so freely has now happened to them. It’s really poetic justice in my opinion.

I don’t support what reddit is doing in regards to 3rd party apps… thing is I don’t support much of what reddit has done for the past 7-8 years. You guys are just now catching on that reddit has ceased to be a viable platform even though in reality its death happened long ago. A big part of the problem there is moderators themselves, especially in the bigger subs. So yeah, I don’t support reddit, but I really couldn’t care less about how the mods perceive themselves to be mistreated either. Basically they are getting just a tiny taste of the treatment they’ve given the average user for years and suddenly just right now they FINALLY see it as a problem. Cry me a river. You reap what you sow.
