I was never a Chapo listener, and 1) the Hexbear consensus is that Chapo isn’t what it used to be anyway, and 2) Hexbear isn’t really very dirtbag in their leftism these days, and if it ever was that was before my time.
I can’t speak to furry whatevers, you’ll have to see for yourself. I think there are way more instances defederated from Hexbear than the other way around.
I’m not entirely sure how federation even works. If y’all defed, I’ll stop seeing yer posts, right?
That’s the long and short of it, yes. You’d stop seeing our communities, posts, votes, and comment threads, meaning our comments and everyone’s replies to those comments.
how is it not dirtbag? I've seen people get very aggro when talking to libs and rightwingers from other instances
I’m not getting into some nerd-ass struggle session about the Merriam-Webster definition of dirtbag,
.
guilty as charged, i joined from the blahaj zone instance after the defederation drama and have never really been into the local culture :|
There are a lot of inside jokes and it can take a while to calibrate one’s Poe’s Law-dar.
I always thought the "dirtbag" in "dirtbag leftist" referred more to the use of slurs and bigoted/ablesist/etc language and less about the aggressiveness in their comments.
