Just wanted to share a thread for those who don't regularly venture out of the bear site. Can't cross-post since it's defederated. It's small but has some numbers about community counts, active users, etc and links to more info from https://lemmyverse.net/. Thought it was notable that Hexbear shows up no matter how you sort it.

OP image is community count sorted by active users in the last month.

It's always funny how everyone just throws out nonsense about hexbear because they don't know what to do with us.

There isn't a spot for "Anti-Capitalist leftist" in their shape sorting game, so they try to shove us in the "teenage trolls" hole, but we probably average closer to 27-30.

Then they try to fit us in the q-anon maga hole, but that clearly doesn't fit because we'll bite your head off if you come at our trans homies and all our conspiracies are admitted to by the FBI/CIA.

So they post things like "they love the N word that's why they got defederated" and people just believe it.

The classic go to was that we are “genocide deniers” because we don’t repeat the Uighur narrative nonstop - but that’s lost its bite after the libs openly became genocidal against Palestine and that genocide actually has deaths

They straight up lie about our stance though. Like, "Oh they say it's not a genocide in Xinjiang but just an ethnic cleansing" when the fuck did any of us say that lmaooooo

At best it’s an overly strict re-education program with some individual discrimination by certain cops. That’s the most I’ll ever cede on the Xinjiang front, something was needed to deal with the CIA flooding ETIM terrorists over the Afghan border to stab 900 people. China didn’t bomb or kill anyone, unlike what the west does in their “counter-terrorist operations”

Yeah pretty much agree. When the UNHCR visit put out its report following the visit in 2022 it had almost the same conclusion. It was discarded whole cloth though by the same people who were calling for external investigations into allegations of human rights abuses in XJ only a short while earlier

Also then the country I live in refused UN visits during voluntary compliance with the UN optional protocol concerning the Prevention of Torture not one year later (which involved prisons, watch houses, places of remand and detention). Glass houses stown thrones.

I don't even know if it was overly strict. Give the CIA a crack and they will drive a titanium wedge into it with a wrecking ball.

Oh, we might offend some of the blue noses with our cocky stride and musky odors! Oh, we'll never be the darling of the so called 'city fathers' who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards and talk about "What's to be done with this Hexbear?"

I liked the one claiming we get state funding, though sadly they didn't specify whether we're getting paid in Xi-bucks or Putin-bucks.

Speak for yourself, I'm forever 13 at heart.
