  Brigading is when people comment on threads which are visible to them, and the more they comment the more brigading-er it is.

  “Brigading is when people post in threads on the front page”

  Can you define brigading?

  Rhetorical question of course because I know you can’t.

    Using a congregation of users to influence a discussion unrelated to said congregation as a collective as opposed to individual users.

    It’s like going to A random Youtube video and making it about the Rape of Nanking

      This thread is literally discussing hexbear, and it also shows up in our all thread. By your own definition we are not brigading

      Raids are a fact of Internet life. “Brigading” is just some bullshit made up on Reddit. There’s not a single website outside of Reddit that cares about “brigading.” Not old-school forums, not 4chan, not Twitch channels, not Twitter.

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s): piped.video/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=rf93hqPoBByQcCPe

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

    You call it dunking. You know perfectly well what it means, and you being here behaving like you do amply demonstrates it even for people who have deliberate reading issues.
