If so, was it polled somewhere?

    Lol I blocked the most annoying posters from hexbear on this thread and now there’s hardly any comments. I think we should put them in time out. Like defederate for 15 days. if they keep brigading, another 15 days. I don’t really want to defederate, but I hate this kind of brigading.

        Using a congregation of users to influence a discussion unrelated to said congregation as a collective as opposed to individual users.

        It’s like going to A random Youtube video and making it about the Rape of Nanking

          Raids are a fact of Internet life. “Brigading” is just some bullshit made up on Reddit. There’s not a single website outside of Reddit that cares about “brigading.” Not old-school forums, not 4chan, not Twitch channels, not Twitter.

              Because you dumbfucks prevent any legitimate conversation from happening.

              Keep it up guys, soon no one will want to interact with you. Fuck yeah, trans rights! Trans awareness! Really pushing the envelope here monkeys.

          This thread is literally discussing hexbear, and it also shows up in our all thread. By your own definition we are not brigading

            I mean that’s fair, but what you’re doing is like going into a public library and throwing a rave party. You’re allowed in there, but the people are there for a different reason than you

              Nah. People keep inviting them and then accusing them of brigading. They’re like a large group of rave enthusiasts from out of town that were sent invitations to all attend a rave and took public transportation to get there. Then, the people standing outside with “Repent” and “God Hates F****ts!” signs keep shouting that they’re here to corrupt the youth and they don’t belong here.

                Dude, I had your people calling me a bigot because I said you’re no longer trans if you finish transitioning. Oh sorry, I forgot that I also said that trans people in sports is a complicated issue.

                I don’t even really give a shit if they are, or aren’t, allowed to play sports. It has nothing to do with me. Words cannot express how little I think about this problem.

                Your people act like that makes me a fascist and a bigot, make sure that EVERY ratio is in the hexbear users favor and then you wonder why you’re being accused of brigading?

                Jesus christ what a shitshow. Ya’ll need to get outside and breathe something that isn’t cave air.

        You call it dunking. You know perfectly well what it means, and you being here behaving like you do amply demonstrates it even for people who have deliberate reading issues.
