I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of ‘hitlerites’

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

          Antiyanks is a user who gets banned constantly and keeps making new accounts over and over. If you see a brand new account that attacks other people and quickly gets banned, that’s them. Their usernames usually insult the admins or Americans and they tend to use small instances for new accounts making them very easy to spot.

          They claim to have hobbies outside of insulting people on Lemmy, but I find that very hard to believe given how dedicated they are to it. They were already up to over 30 accounts just 2 months ago.

        Yep lots of pro hex comments appeared as I was posting from accounts with little comment history but aged accounts. Probably some loser with a dozen

      Also there is no fucking “brigading” on lemmy given how small it is, idiot. I didn’t actively seek out this shit, it just popped on my frontpage.
