Hey, new federated user from Hexbear here - Hexbear
hexbear.net
Just curious how many of you are cool with this deeply racist image being the header for one of your comms

Thread now locked, so you can’t brigadedeeper-sadness

I understand this to be an official endorsement of racism from the mod team at shitjustworks

Enjoy this attempt to find a single non-racist among our new friends

Edit: Mods are mass deleting comments lmao

    Federating with sh.it.piss.balls was even dumber than federating with the Wehraboos at lemm.pee.

    Did our users vote in favor of this shit to prove that electoralism is a fuck? Because congratulations, you’ve proven once more that it is. We need more democratic centralism up in this mfer and defed that stain of an instance immediately, what the hell did you expect from this? Almost any not openly leftist sub that is fine federating us is some freeze-peach horseshit and will always have way too many reactionaries to let them in here. You privileged fucks could show a minimum of respect for the vulnerable part of our userbase that these people come to harass here, but no, actually taking care of your queer,neurodivergent and racialized comrades is too much when it inconveniences you by giving you less opportunity to “dunk on libs”. Make an account there when you want to do that. Don’t bring this here.

      i think the admin team prob could use some expanding and to be faster to use the banhammer tbh. i dont think the admins are generally privileged though, a lot are trans too.

      ive noticed a number of trans people on other instances popping into /c/traa at least, and some even made accounts because of /c/traa and it hitting their front page.

      The politburo that would be responsible for the democratic centralism in this case is the same group of people that decided to hold a second vote on federating with these cretins after the first was an overwhelming NO.

      The same people who, like three days into federation, decided to make their drama with other lemmy admins the focal point of attention.

      Sorry, but I think they’ve lost the plot here.
