Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them?
Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them?
If so, was it polled somewhere?

Pretty disappointing that @iamaqtpie is active on hexbear and says things like:
Please direct any seething that you may wish to do to the struggle session that’s well underway over here.
which reddit considered hate speech 🙄
Also disappointing that hexbear gets to vote federation, while we are left to federate to hexbear without a choice because the admins like the instance. Lame.
It's clear that sh.itjust.works does not care to get community support in it's decision making and we are left at the whims of the admins preferences. Isn't this why most of us left Reddit? Because community say didn't mean anything?

which reddit considered hate speech 🙄
here's the whole quote, emphasis mine:
Hexbear is a Lemmy server that was created about 3 years ago as a new home for the former users of r/chapotraphouse. CTH was banned from reddit because
they were openly calling for the deaths of slave owners, which reddit considered hate speech🙄Why would you take this out of context, and what is your issue with the whole quote?

technically we were just expressing our support for US military action in the civil war and the song John Brown's body. Which was an official song of the US army at one point.
We were kicked off for our American patriotism if you think about it

The quote was to establish that the admins personal feelings are involved about the instance.
It is an objective fact that the sub was banned on Reddit for hate speech. The rolling eyes emoji establishes the admins personal feelings on the subject.
Whether the ban is justified or not is irrelevant to my point that SJW does not care to understand what its user base may want.

objective fact
It's an "objective fact" that support for John Brown's history of fighting slavery and slavers is hate speech?
Way to drop that mask.

Slavers do (and did) deserve to die though, it's not hate speech it's just true
-
kill all slavers. every last one.

Whether or not the eye roll is justified is in question when the quote is supposed to emblematic of the admin’s opinions of the instance. Some of our staunchest detractors can admin that “kill slave owners” is not hate speech because “slave owner” is not a protected class. Do you think dismissal of this logic is so outlandish that it must be emblematic of support for our instance? Because I don’t see any other reason to include it.

Such a snivelling little weaselly maneuver
-
What are their standards for calling someone a slaveowner? Because if they're the types I think they are they would include people who clearly don't belong in that category
-
the posts were often some variant of "John Brown did nothing wrong," so, actual slave owners

When asked whether they believe their country is democratic, those in China topped the list, with some 83% saying the communist-led People's Republic was a democracy. A resounding 91% said that democracy is important to them.
But in the U.S., which touts itself as a global beacon of democracy, only 49% of those asked said their country was a democracy. And just over three-quarters of respondents, 76%, said democracy was important.

Ya I will take the people of china's word on this one.

More democratic than the US. The US has an electoral college system explicitly designed to make electing a president undemocratic. In Korea they vote for each equivalent of a cabinet position instead of letting the president just appoint all of them. https://www.ncnk.org/sites/default/files/DPRK%20constitution%20%282019%29.pdf
If this shocks you, remember that Americans are the most propagandized people in the history of the world

To the degree that Korea isn't free, it's is because they've spent their entire existence at war with the largest and most powerful global empire in history and have been cut off from international trade.
The US isn't free because it's a fascist state. The Korean peninsula isn't free also because the US is a fascist state.
Now let's hear your next vapid quip that's supposed to mean more than objective facts and inarguable history, redditor. I don't want you to lose even a bit of steam acting like you're the smartest person in the room while displaying no knowledge about anything.
