- Comment on Dealing with new users’ expectations 1 year ago:
What was particularly sad this time was that the mods here, instead of deleting the abusive comments which I reported several times, decided instead to remove the whole post altogether while those comments themselves were never touched. So, not only the reporting option became pointless, but it also removed (in my opinion) a nice conversation on the topic. In the mod log they wrote ‘reason: Troll bait’ for why the post was removed, but I find…let’s say very coincidental that every time a discussion about Hexbear (which might start very calmly at first) has then to be locked or deleted because of the trolling.
I am almost certain that the post was removed by one of the admins on Hexbear. See their modlog: hexbear.net/modlog?page=1&userId=172774. They removed almost all comments made by @comr@hexbear.net, banned him, and removed the post.

You won’t see this, but I’m gonna say this anyway: Your admins also actively engage in building an echo chamber for Hexbears. Just look at the recent so-called “great purge” done by one of your admins. Your admins banned hundreds of people they disagree with politically. It’s kind of hypocritical that any Hexbears accuse others of censoring dissidents.

Once, a Hexbear harassed me by asking me to post a picture of my dick. I reported the comment, messaged one of the admins, but so far the admins have ignored the reports and those offending comments are still up. Heck, I even tried to message the admin through Matrix but she rejected (not ignore) my message request. The admins there do not care if people outside Hexbear are harassed by Hexbears. All they do is ban people they don’t agree with.
Those three links if you want to see it for yourself:
It is my request that anyone reading this comment not message that admin to harass her.

Why are the pithy, dismissive responses not trolling? Those replies are exactly trolling.

I’m stealing this phrase, thanks.

What the hell is this news outlet? No matter how badly someone messed up, media should always refrain from using words like scabby or loser behavior.

that shit just shouldn’t be here
Yes, I agree. Maybe my wording suggested otherwise. But my point was that it wouldn’t be the uploader that’s punished but the instance itself. That’s kinda weird.

It’s honestly sad that some well-intentioned laws can be used to attack online platforms.

I didn’t know what that was until I just looked it up, so, no. I named myself after the Python function

what kind of mentality is this? “I’m being hostile to you because you deserve it.”

Thanks. I am aware of the George Floyd incident and the numerous others African-Americans killed for no good reason.
Yes, in hindsight, calling that genocide with no real evidence of direct killing is a bit too much. But the report I linked to mentioned coercive birth control and internment or imprisonment for violations of the family planning policy (page 35). While that indeed is not genocide per se, it does seem to bring what China is doing one step toward that direction.

I was going to agree with you until I notice you used the word “fee-fees.”

I was trying to use different terms for the same thing so that my post does not become boring to read.

Thank you. You are among one of the nobler Hexbears. I will take your advice.

I admit, I did say that. But that was after being insulted by numerous Hexbear users. Also, I did not use insults towards them (unlike them who used insults liberally).

Thank you, dear admin, for your timely and thoughtful reply.
This post seems even more likely to devolve into the same kind of attacks.
Yes, I completely agree. In fact, it seems like there are already signs of that happening.
OP: Please always report comments that harass you
Thank you. I will.
I know that walking away from an argument is extremely difficult, but in the threads you linked, there is an irreconcilable disagreement about which sources can be trusted
Irreconcilable indeed. I have learned my lesson from several fruitless arguments with them.
While I know there isn’t a consensus on this topic among lemm.ee users, I personally don’t think defederation is the correct approach
I see. I respect your decision.
the way some people casually throw around the insult “nazi” is completely ridiculous (and I don’t just mean hexbear users here)
Yeah! They are the ones “diminishing” the word nazi.

my edit of only striking it out instead of actually removing it was the biggest respect I can give to Hexbears users like you. but to be honest, when the members of a certain group is personally attacking you, is it possible to leave comments without the intention of making them look bad? In any case, I did not use any sort of insult toward any Hexbear users.
- Comment on My thoughts on Hexbear. Posting as the megathread was locked. 1 year ago:
Thanks. I just blocked them, along with the person who told me to post dick pics (as screenshotted in my edit to the post)
- Comment on My thoughts on Hexbear. Posting as the megathread was locked. 1 year ago:
Thanks. I will stop. In fact I planned for my post to be the final few hours I dedicate to those people.
- Comment on My thoughts on Hexbear. Posting as the megathread was locked. 1 year ago:
Yes, that’s what I am talking about. The Hexbear Federation Megathread posted by our admin about 2 weeks ago. I have never posted on any megathread on Hexbear.
- Comment on My thoughts on Hexbear. Posting as the megathread was locked. 1 year ago:
Thanks for the suggestion. I actually have been considering blocking that user.

Winnie the pooh is not a racist term. It is merely an insult to Xi.
- Comment on My thoughts on Hexbear. Posting as the megathread was locked. 1 year ago:
you commented on cth.
Well yeah I guess I should have expected this coming lol. But to be fair I don’t think me commenting on cth justifies their personal insults.
Also, another half of personal insults happened on !worldnews@lemmy.ml.

Thanks for the reply. Actually I got in some arguments about politics but then Hexbears degraded it into a personal argument. This has happened several times.

There has been this trend indeed, but I do still see news reports about suicides every now and then.

As a Taiwanese, I can confirm the caption was made up. I just looked up “life sentence” and “suicide” in Chinese and got no relevant results. The vibe of the picture does look Taiwanese though
