EDIT AGAIN We've raised so far $770 in donations, meaning we've already donated a whopping $1540!!!! including the matching! You dears are wonderful, I love you all! The Third Hexbear Palestinian Donation Drive starts NOW, as explained in my previous post [https://hexbear.net/post/8121292]: I landed a job in March and I will be putting forward 1000€ to match donations by other Hexbear users to a number of Palestinian links (please, if there are other links that I’ve missed or if any of the links isn’t valid for some reason, let me know ASAP). As it worked the previous donation drive [https://hexbear.net/post/3970590] thanks to dear user IgnusNilsen [u/IgnusNilsen], I have compiled a list of what I believe to be confirmed links to Palestinian funds for donations. Simply carry out a donation to any of the links provided and send me proof of said donation via DM or posting a comment in this post. If you wish your username to be public in the donation, you can also just post the proof in a reply to this post. I will try to, as fast as possible (keep in mind that I live in west-European timezone), post both the donation carried out by you and my matching donation to the comments of this post together with the amount donated thus far! Let me know if you want the donation to be anonymous and not related to your username, BY DEFAULT I WILL MENTION THE USERNAME OF THE DONOR Thank you very much to MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian [u/MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian], CARCOSA [u/CARCOSA] and Soliman_Ayman [u/Soliman_Ayman] for helping me organize this donation drive. If anyone else is capable of contributing a significant amount to the matching donations, let me know via DM so that we can organize it too and I’ll edit the post. Thank you to OurTimeWillCome [u/OurTimeWillCome] for keeping us alert and reminding us when someone needs help. Feel free to crosspost this donation post to any other federated Lemmy instance in case anyone else wants to contribute.

Some comrades over at Hexbear have organized a donation drive for Palestine and, over the past few weeks, have managed to raise over $1500 for verified Palestinian fundraisers. The fediverse is a good place full of good people.

    To be fair, they did specify right-wing Lemmy instances, not right-wingers in general, and I can’t think of any instances that would meet that definition off the top of my head.

    But Hexbear definitely has a reputation as some of the worst of the worst of the normal instances. Blahaj defederated from them despite Ada trying to get the trans communities of both instances connected because of the harassment, brigading, and outright transphobia Hexbear inflicted on Blahaj users for not being the right kind of leftists. You can still find the community discussions on the topic in the general instance posts. They even tried to claim that Blahaj was being transphobic to them. You know, the LGBTQ instance created and ran to be a space for trans people and others first and foremost.

    Hexbear is also known to have at least once tried to convince their mods to “take over other instances and ban all the non-communists.”

    I believe that at this point if you were to download the stuff to spin up your own instance, Hexbear is on the list of instances that are defederated by default because so many instances have defederated them because of their behavior.
