The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear and usually follow it up with a ban. It's absolutely clear what is happening and it shouldn't be allowed to continue.

Welcome to federation, where basically every instance is a proxy to all others.

Btw you are also free to block any instance yourself.

Unfortunately blocking an instance only blocks posts on that instance, not users from it, which is the main issue people have with those instances.

I think thays a good compromise. if you then have an issie with a particular user you can block them individually.
