Thank you for the reasonable reply that didn't attack my character for asking. Apparently, that's too much to ask of some people.
Just be warned, Cowbee is very much misrepresenting things here.
I urge you to read the thread he linked, and not take his summary seriously.
As I explained in my reply to you, I misrepresented nothing. Lemmy.world admins banned Hexbear because of ideological disagreements they deemed unacceptable before even federating. Hexbear never said they were going to "wage a propaganda war," they just suggested that if their users were to discuss politics in federated threads that they try to be more professional about it.
Me: posts direct quotes about waging a propaganda war
You: They never said they were going to wage a propaganda war.
Why are you just straight up lying?
I'm not lying, though. You misrepresented the post, and I elaborated directly to you. They told users not to engage in rowdy behavior and instead insisted on professionalism.
"No u"
Buddy -- I quoted it. Stop lying.
You misrepresented it, and me, as I already explained in my other reply.
