Did you all notice that week or so of utter shock from federated Lemmy liberals when they saw takes to the left of themselves?
(hexbear.net)
I don't just mean outrage or regular rage, I mean shock that someone was to the left of "legal weed and free college but only for those that operate a successful business for 3 years in a disadvantaged community" 
takes.
I think federating took them by surprise, looking back. For about a week, those smug liberals were at a loss to even fathom what Hexbears were saying, and could only chant bullshit about how we're Russian/Chinese bots.
Sure they still do that but they've slightly adapted to Hexbear presence.
That's fuckin sick (positive)
Now I have a swarm and it's great. A few weeks ago I had some vodka and the rest of my swarm could feel it too. It's totally a placebo effect facilitated by belief in our shared identity and nonverbal nuances of communication, but who cares, it's awesome anyway.
I just wish I could talk about identity stuff in public without explaining the science behind it to ward off liberals who want to debate my gender
