What is lemmy.world doing defederating before hexbear even federates? lemmy.world/instances

This is what it took to defederate from exploding-heads after being federated with them since the start of lemmy.world

What evidence do you have of hexbear breaking the lemmy or citizen code of conduct?

Has the criteria for defederation changed?

Hexbear is one of the largest and most active lemmy instances:

Compared to lemmy.ml:

Compared to lemm.ee:

    Could it have something to do with their post announcing intent to federate trying to both-sides the Russian invasion of Ukraine? https://www.hexbear.net/post/280770 (not even getting into the comments there)

    Personally I’d be cool with defederation from lemmygrad too, for the same reason.

      I don’t see how that’s relevant to the hexbear defederation. Lemmygrad takes a stronger stance on the SMO in general, we’re still federated.

      So what?

      also lemmy.ml the admin owners are just as woke as lemmygrad and hexbear like ive said in other comments if lemmy.world is building a safespace against the woke lemmy instances that’s their right as admins but users deserve to know so they can make an educated instance choice.

        What’s “woke” exactly about tankies? They’re just the far left version of far right fascism. They just have apologia for a different set of dictatorial oligarchies.

            Do you seriously not see a difference between Russia and China’s governments versus the United States?

            Heck, South Korea and Japan have their own conservative shitheads in power problems as well, but they are still fundamentally democracies like the United States, whereas Russia and China are not.

              The United States never was a democracy. Nowhere in the US constitution are citizens guaranteed a democracy or even a conditional right to vote.

              I don’t feel like I will have any say in our elections next year, even as a citizen with the right to vote. Why should minorities wait in hours-long lines instead of working just to pick between Biden and Trump? Are the Democrats really going to help the working class this time instead of the corporations who fund them or will they just defer to the Republicans like during the Obama years when they had a supermajority?

              I would argue that the policy of democratic centralism in China is much more of a democracy, where citizens can have a say in the actual policies of the country.
