Thank fucking God
Good. Trust me, you want nothing to do with that cesspool of absolute morons.
This explains why my feed has been less hectic since I got on a few minutes ago.
Issues with 196 aside, those Hexbear folks sure are a contentious people.
What’s up with 196? I blocked their community weeks ago
Lol. For a group of people regularly defending genocide and calling for people to get the wall, they sure are easily offended. I wonder if this distortion of facts, and trying to gaslight us is due to some sort of mass psychosis or plain narcissism.
Honestly, thank God.
real you can’t fire me i quit vibes from them
Damn, I’m not one for drama but Holy shit their comments on that thread are fucked up, they seem like a really toxic and unhealthy bunch of people.
We’re generally better off without extremists who’s only defense to anything they don’t like is attacking others and badmouthing them.
It really shows their general character and maturity levels.
Also, it seems like there are a lot of other instances asking mods for defederation due to toxicity.
Yeah, the comments are bad, I clicked on the link out of curiosity. I think I got my weekly dose of online slurs for the week.
Also an interesting “safe space”. A “safe space” to be unhinged in which names you call others that don’t agree with you and been cheered on for doing so.
Good for them. Amateur hour over here.
I mean, if you’re unsatisfied, there’s an easy way to remedy that.
Aww, but then I couldn’t see your future antics.
Yiiiiikes

Is there really any mess? A 1x1 foot rug could cover any of it up.
It could really tie a room together.

I was about to yell “Good riddance!” and go running to join the transy-sharky-instance but we just really ‘can’t have nice things,’ can we :-\ :(

I definitely see them O.o Kbin’s kinda weird. Maybe there’s spooky magic involved! … Okay, there isn’t, but I don’t know why I see them and seem to have no option to not see them without jumping ship.
On kbin here, definitely can see them. If they did not federate with kbin that means they just can’t see kbin posts/comments
I really wanted the two instances to stay federated and advocated for such, but now I’m not sure if I even want to be here. Here’s hoping we can commandeer 196 and make sure it’s based and doesn’t end up like the reddit one
Agreed, that needs to be dealt with as well.
I didn’t see the ableism, what did they say?

I didn’t call anyone braindead, and I left the slur in so that people would know what I said, and what I was apologizing for.
To be fair, the comment about criticism of Marxism Leninism being inherently racist because some MLs are not white was, in a technical sense of the term, totally braindead.
I’ve gone a few rounds with another HB poster trying to get some clarity, but that seems to indeed be the sum total of the argument.

lying when we have screenshots of the modlog is some real cajones
That wasnt me the screenshot has the moderator responsible cropped out
that just says mod. whoever did it, purge them.
Tankies want to purge people. Big surprise.
I saw that, I’ve had a talk with my team about using better language when resolving reports. Stuff like this shouldn’t be happening
They have a very different view of what constitutes an unsafe space, for the last day or so every time I saw a username with pronouns my whole body would tighten up anticipating some randomly aggressive attack post. I hate that they made me feel that way about something that should be good. I will not miss them.
One of them made a post on Egg_irl with Astolfo which seems to be almost saying that they think Femboys and GNC are just trans girls in denial. Really didn’t sit well with me since I know that that kind of think is very hurtful to Femboys and has been very hurtful to me as well as an Agender.
I had a blahaj person make a similar response to a message of mine a few weeks ago, before hexbear was even on the radar. I just rolled my eyes and may have sent some sort of “wow, what a dumb take” response or something.

iirc, deleting the post from hexbear would not have done anything, defederation affects any interaction with blahaj
At the time it was still federated with our site, not anymore though, lemmy.blahaj.zone is now their first entry on the block list.
Removed at your request
Edit: hexbear is currently down so I can’t, I’ll remove the post as soon as hexbear comes back online
I just looked and Hexbear seems to be back up but they now have a blocked list and lemmy.blahaj.zone is on it. Seems they defederated from us.
Edit 2: hexbear is still not coming back up so I’ll report the post on this account and ask the mods to delete it, sorry for any discomfort I caused you
All is forgiven 😉
Uninvolved 3rd party, but I just wanna commend your thoughtfulness here
OH whew thank you, I thought it was just my VPN that had gotten blocked. I wasn’t able to see any of the hexbear links.
Yeah I saw. This shit has spiraled majorly, but a lot of their accusations are incredibly distorted versions of the truth, especially around the slurs. We remove slurs! I made an honest mistake, and immediately corrected it when called out, yet that has turned into accusations of ableism and transphobic behavior
Honestly, as an outsider, it seems like the majority of engagement from hexbear’s side is extremely bad faith. Same vibes as twitter drama from couple years ago when twitter queers “cancelled” leftist and queer content creators and prominent figures for basically nothing. Like Contrapoints twitter drama. Or Lindsay Ellis twitter drama. Or second Contrapoints twitter drama, you get the point…
You should have seen HB posters on /c/breadtube. It was exactly like that. After the last philosophytube post I just decamped to my Lemmy.world account.
Literally.
I’m not on this instance but I have been paying attention to what’s going on, and I feel like a lot of the drama is being amplified by bad-faith accounts that are not contextualizing accusations but instead using judgments like “ableism,” “racism,” and “defense of chasers.” While in a certain lens those accusations are accurate, that lens is very distorted; it ignores all context and assumes bad faith from all participants, which I don’t think is warranted.
I would guess a lot of the Hexbear users also have alts on this instance and are just amplifying the discord since that’s sort of their raison d’être. I imagine it’ll all blow over as they get bored and go back to Hexbear.

Have you met hexbear posters? That’s exactly how they work.
It’s like a bizarro upside down version of the late-gamergate “nachoshield” affair.
I’ve never heard of that and it sounds like I don’t want to!
Thank fuck. I was getting really tired of people picking fights everywhere over dumb shit.
They must have done something that wasn’t a full defed or haven’t done it yet. I literally just had a hexbear user respond to me in a blahaj post
[I got a bot to automatically delete all my comments over 1 month old so you can’t see this comment anymore]
iirc they’ll be able to respond to posts that were already loaded into their instance, and you’ll be able to see it, but if you respond, they won’t see the response.
They’re just not accepting any new data from blahaj. Blahaj hasn’t defederated from them, so blahaj is happy to accept any new data they throw at it.
