absolutely 100% what i’ve witnessed lurking on all the big active threads lately. people deliberately misconstruing what we’re saying, outright LYING about shit (like they were downvoted/called some slur that is on our filters), and just bullshit concern trolling about shit liek BriGaDiNG (you mean using the fucking website? lmao) allll that shit annoys me.
Saw one going off about how hexbear is shitting up lemmy.world - the site that famously pre-emptively defederated. And the mentioned claims of downvoting/slur use that are technically impossible. They really will make anything up nothing to stand on.
