    Thank god. I’ve been annoyed by their toxic nonsense.

    This is like when the one insufferable dude at a party leaves on his own, and now the host doesn’t have to say something.

    One of them sent me a private message:

    your grandfather was a nazi scumfuck that deserves to die

    Nice people.

    And my grandfather was not German, he lived in an actual communist country and hated it.

          Because it’s simply a cudgel to use against other sections of the left "Oh you haven’t completely purged any and all bigotry from your movement? Guess we’re gonna have to act smug and call you a piece of shit. "

          And then “No no no, please don’t look at Marxist Leninists track record on LGBT rights” or “No way, there’s no genocide in Xinjiang”

          They’re basically using Fox new republican logic of screaming about how everyone who doesn’t agree with them is persecuting them and is a bigot about spins wheel of things they like to call people.

        Yah, saw that they locked down your vote on that, then made some sort of “why can’t we all just get along” comment to rub it in.

        And said something about the admin over there trying to work along with them on reducing the dunking. Yet that same admin is in another thread on hexbear assuring people that they are certainly not trying to reduce dunking in other servers, and saying basically “go for it”.

        Pretty silly. Glad my server has defed from the shitbirds.

              Most likely. Can’t leave evidence of enabling shitty behaviour. This is a screencap from a thread where that admin was telling them to stop flooding meta posts on other instances that were considering defederating from them. I think it was Blahaj or Beehaw. One of those.

        Seems really fishy to me. TheDude defederated from Lemmygrad with zero community input, based on his own personal convictions. Now the admin team agrees to let in a rabid userbase of tankies, imaqtpie calls them a “valuable asset” in response to calls for defederation, and they actively get in the way of our attempts to organize a discussion/vote to defederate. Things feel different and not in a good way.

        “Wh-what do you mean people are shitty to us when we’re shitty to them?? This is [insert irrelevant accusation of bigotry here]! Critical support for Comrade Xi’s Concentration Camps!”

        People who are so eager to dish it often can’t take it. Even in milder forms than the 4chan-esque trolling Hexbears use, like the horrible personal attack that is [checks notes] disputing that concentration camps are good.

              I read 20 mins ago someone from hexbear complaining that calling Xi Winnie is racist because Winnie is yellow and Xi Chinese. Meanwhile, the meme was born in china, from chinese people. The west just adopted the icon that China’s govenment banned in china, after its own citizens popularized it.

    I don’t know how someone posts something that aggressively asshole-ish and then doesn’t understand why everyone defederates them.

        Even if there is an option to zoom, it’s difficult because to read the text you have to scroll sideways in small steps for each line
