We’re one of the oldest and by far most established and active community on the lemmyverse. Our instance was forked for a long time because of some backend issues with how our admins wanted pronouns to work on our usernames for example. Just last week we finished updating the site such that we’re compatible again and merged. OP is big mad that we’re very populated and active so it feels like we’re ‘brigading’ when a thread gets popular. It could also be that we’re militantly pro-lgbt (if the pronouns didn’t tip you off) and ideologically leftist (usually marxist-lenninists but we have a fair number of anarchist comrades as well).
We’re kind of having a laugh at all these people who joined 1-2 months ago from reddit having culture shock at the new site and demand the furniture be arranged to their taste. It could also be as one of us mentioned on a separate thread that OP was doing some casual homophobia and boy do we like bullying people like them. If you sort your lemmy feed by all and sort by active, you’ll see posts with hundreds of comments where we’re arguing about bigotry like that, disinformation, western chauvinism, ect.
The community was originally on Reddit as /r/chapotraphouse until we along with most other explicitly leftist subs were banned. We’ve been here for three years ever since.
