kittenzrulz claims that the takeover of this community was entirely over links getting burned out. this post would appear to contradict that.
furthermore, they completely disregarded my points in the questions i asked, particularly around the ideological motive around the changes they made when giving feedback, and failed to respond when i pushed them on the point, despite posting elsewhere.
i would argue that both the mod of this community, and the admin of the instance, are hostile to anarchist and leftist politics, and cannot be trusted. recommend finding a new instance.
Hexbear is only safe for trans folks whose politics don’t clash too strongly with theirs. They have a whole community dedicated to dunking on folk who disagree with them, and that includes trans folk. If you step too far from what they deem acceptable, harassing and dogpiling is seen as an acceptable response.
Many of the trans folks on blahaj zone, despite being left aligned, would be deemed to be “libs” by Hexbear, and actively harassed until they left.
If you think that it’s ok that the majority of folk on this instance (well, the majority of trans folk anywhere to be honest) are valid targets for harassment, I don’t know what to tell you other than we have very different ideas of what trans safety looks like.
I’ve seen you repeat this three times now and I don’t understand why you feel the need to exaggerate so heavily.
You can look the posts up, they’re in the first ten pages of the top year posts (i.e. since hexbear started federation with other instances). Or don’t, and you can continue scaring people away from from a place that aggressively moderates to keep its trans users away from bad actors at the first sign of trouble.
To the best of my knowledge, the dunk tank is still there, which is a community centered around harassment of “libs”. Unless the admins have stepped in to remove that community, then my comment still stands.
Your original comment does not stand but okay.
I just hope next time a DRONERIGHTS or midtraveler comes along you’ll act quicker
Can hope but it’s doubtful at this point
Those statements are misleading. hexbears routinely break and bend their own dunk tank rules when they feel salty enough.

Again, this is not a matter of a report. it’s a matter of culture. The hexbears and often the hexbear mods themsleves routinely ignore your own rules in the sidebar instead of respecting them, and then you expect the victimized party to handle it. This keeps happening to people and they keep bringing it up for a reason.

I don’t know, mate , It doesn’t feel baseless when I and other instance admins have been personally the subject of multiple dunk tank posts with hundreds of comments and when your own admins open some themselves.
I don’t think we’re going to reach any understanding here. I’m not gonna be your snitch because your community keeps trying to hurt my feelings and then pretend that it never happened. I’m just calling it like it is.
The fact that I even got ridiculed by your community for the pointing your community rules in the threads breaking them, for me speaks volumes.
You can look it up bud i don’t really give a shit what the guy who popularized the term ‘brigading’ thinks.
I don’t have to look it up. I’ve experienced it multiple times. Also, you think I popularized “brigading”?!
Disengage.
