I’d like to see the hexbear replies to this. Did they defederate with .world yet? Or they can still read this and reply in their echo chamber?

  World defederated from hexbear a while ago. Not sure if that means they stop seeing world by default or if they just can’t participate, but at the very least you and I won’t see them here.

Typical Chinese overengineering. When faced with a similar problem the Soviets just used rifles.

  This is misinformation. The Soviets preferred making you a ~~slave~~ unpaid intern in the mining industry.
