They didn't really move. That hostname has been a synonym for hexbear.net all along. It may have been the instance's original hostname.

Smart move, you're playing Game Categorization, the Game for free on Steam’s dime.

Best I can do is his noodly appendage.

Because it’s the beating heart of the oligarchy that runs the country.

It's the same instance. That's just a synonymous hostname that points to the same IP address.

Because .world's admins pre-emptively defederated from Hexbear as a “last resort” (even though, by definition, it was their “first resort”).

About a year ago: Lemmy.world Hexbear Statement

Yesterday, we received information about the planned federation by Hexbear. The announcement thread can be found here: https://www.hexbear.net/post/280770.

Defederation should only be considered as a last resort. However, based on their comments and behavior, no positive outcomes can be expected.

Did you even read lemmy.ml’s rules?

1. No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.

BBC, 2019: Shakil Afridi: The doctor who helped the CIA find Bin Laden

Dr Afridi was the top medic in Khyber tribal district and as head of health services had overseen a number of US-funded vaccination programmes.

As a government employee, he set up a similar hepatitis B vaccination programme, including in the garrison town of Abbottabad, where it turned out Bin Laden was living right under the noses of the military.

The US intelligence plan was to obtain a blood sample from one of the children living in the Abbottabad compound, so that DNA tests could determine whether or not they were relatives of Bin Laden.

Just done it myself with deepseek.

AI does not exist but it will ruin everything anyway

Ok. If I were forced to choose between hexbear.net and reddit.world, I wouldn’t choose .world. But you do you.

Michael Parenti, Dirty Truths

Those who suffer from conspiracy phobia are fond of saying: “Do you actually think there’s a group of people sitting around in a room plotting things?” For some reason that image is assumed to be so patently absurd as to invite only disclaimers. But where else would people of power get together – on park benches or carousels? Indeed, they meet in rooms: corporate boardrooms, Pentagon command rooms, at the Bohemian Grove, in the choice dining rooms at the best restaurants, resorts, hotels, and estates, in the many conference rooms at the White House, the NSA, the CIA, or wherever. And, yes, they consciously plot – though they call it “planning” and “strategizing” – and they do so in great secrecy, often resisting all efforts at public disclosure. No one confabulates and plans more than political and corporate elites and their hired specialists. To make the world safe for those who own it, politically active elements of the owning class have created a national security state that expends billions of dollars and enlists the efforts of vast numbers of people.

"StoneToss" Tossed: Hans Kristian Graebener of Spring, TX

Comics and cartoons can be used to entertain, educate and enlighten. In the case of the right-wing web comic creator StoneToss and his eponymous cartoon, they can also be used to spread racism, antisemitism, xenophobia and anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry. Since 2017 StoneToss has been doing just that. It has an exceedingly wide presence among neo-Nazis and white nationalists. The easy-to-digest three- or four-panel comics are accessible vectors for spreading right-wing hate and, as we will show, real-world violence.

Even before StoneToss began its regular program of hateful propaganda, the creator did much the same under the name Red Panels. While many have noticed a stylistic and thematic resemblance between StoneToss and Red Panels, people have debated whether or not the two web comics could be attributed to the same creator. In this report we aim to settle this debate and give the creator an opportunity to explain his views under his real identity: Hans Kristian Graebener of Spring, Texas.

We’re not buying games, we’re categorizing games. Again, the game we’re playing is called “Game Categorization, the Game,” and it costs nothing to play it.

reason: Russian Propaganda

It doesn't matter whether it's true or false, it's enough that Russians are also saying it.
