    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.

    Everyone that disagrees with them is a Nazi yet they actively deny the ongoing genocide of Uyghers.

      Everyone who disagrees with them is a transphobe yet they had several posts agreeing with China’s ban on Trans people, sterilization and murder.

        Yeah I don’t get that? Why are they constantly complaining about transphobia all the time? Yet I never see any.

          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.

    Can we still follow through with defederating them? This is definitely a ploy so they can start back up whenever they want.

        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.

        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.

    Heh, good riddance. They’re SUPER fucking annoying, and I’ve seen pretty much zero examples of their userbase contributing in a meaningfully positive way to discussions on any instance, including their own.

      really doesn’t take much.

      it’s so disheartening, like legitimately, how are these guys gonna cancel capitalism and destroy the west when they need to flee back to their safespace on the fucking internet.

        “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.

              SOOOoo it must be racist yeah /s

    I only clicked on a few of their posts. One was literally a bunch of people saying Biden is a pussy for not drone striking 80k people at burning man. For people who really eschew civility like that they seem really sensitive in this post.

    Delicate internet bullies.

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

    It doesn’t kill to be at least slightly polite to people.
