Out of curiosity I went to exploding-heads.com and it looks like it’s not working anymore. Is there a new place they hang out now? Are they undercover on the regular servers or something? It’d be a little surprising to me if they all just gave up on being active on the Fediverse.
My favorite theory is that they realized their similarity to hexbears and tankies and joined that chapter of ‘people who can’t handle living in a mixed society’.
And somehow both of them push propaganda aligned with the Kremlin…

I miss the tankies. I assume they’re still around somewhere, but now they’re all drowned out by the “look what I found on Twitter” bros. I didn’t agree with them, but for a while, Lemmy felt like the old internet.
Just go to a different instance there’s a shit ton of em lol
Awww you missed us lol yes im here
Haha excellent. I was completely sincere when I was telling that other guy that Lemmy feels like a monoculture now, and I liked the “tankie vs leftie vs nerd” generation of it way better. When I first came on and it was ideologically diverse I was like “holy shit, score, I’m staying here forever.” Like I say, it felt like the old internet.

Link??
Haha sure, DM me.
Nobody wants you here.
Lmao they got defederated en masse because (drum roll) they were all abrasive pricks. Same with these maga chuds.
I’ve argued with both tankies and MAGA people, and the tankies were way more abrasive. Like bad-faith to a degree that’s genuinely hard to believe. I still loved them.
Two sides of the same shit-coin imho
That’s … both sides, all sides, isn’t it? Specifically for exploding-heads, there were numerous and loud calls on multiple instances to defederate from them.
Nope.
The interesting part is not your personal opinion but the reasoning behind it.
I have reasons for my position and layed them out. You disagree, and showed that much. I still have my reasons and can’t know yours, so your comment did not change anyones mind or advance the conversation in any way.
K
Are you for real? You do realize that “mixed society” is referring to actual real life, right?
That wasn’t clear to me. I thought this was about siloed lemmy instances, hence I talked about that.
I don’t see how their comment makes sense from your perspective. Can you explain? According to that theory, where did the exploding-heads people go, joining the people who can’t handle living in a mixed society in real life? Do you mean they stopped using the internet or how does that help to explain the observation?
I read it as saying that, despite having ideals on two opposite ends of the spectrum, they’ve found “common ground” of sorts, in a community full of people who can’t handle living in irl “mixed society.”
In other words, they’re the only people willing to put up with similar behavior to their own I guess? This is all speculation, I haven’t seen what those instances look like these days and don’t really have any interest.

Above you can see ‘Exhibit a’ in my case that hexbears, magas and incels can’t handle free will.
Notice the mention of a “mixed society” immediately forces them to analyze skin pigmentation and make wild claims in an attempt to regain normality.
It would be funny if it wasn’t so damn sad.

NEVER would have guessed the emotional equivalent of a still-frozen toaster-strudel wouldn’t be able to make holy matrimony work out.

Trump is, somehow, the worst President we’ve ever had, despite very stiff competition. You have a very sus definition of “goat”.
If Donald Trump never ran for president, you would pay good money to do a body shot out of his belly button
