...has a comment from an hexbear user who thinks this is very funny. (hidden from here because we defederated them)
Man hexbear is such a shit show. When chapotraphouse was a sub I was on there near 24/7 for like 2 years, and it was the best online experience I've ever had. Then they migrated over to hexbear and it's like only the worst, most self righteous people from the community moved over. I'm literally the most left person I personally know by a wide margin, and I got called a reactionary and told to kill myself and then a mod agreed with them and banned me for a week over a blatantly pro trans comment that apparently wasn't pro trans in the right way. Like it literally said "trans people should be able to do whatever the fuck they want with their body, I don't care, it doesn't effect me" and like 5 people were like "you 'don't care' about trans people? Do the world a favor and fucking kill yourself, you're literally butchering trans comrades with your comment"
This is why I keep quiet on issues like that, someone will always say you are wrong for not having their exact opinion and wording. Had a similar thing when I said a 5 year old boy can wear a dress without being a girl, just let them do what they want.
That isn't literally what the person said, though. The modlog and profile on hexbear does show that they did also argue to post less about trans support, argued for people showing less support and did not accept when other, trans!, people explained their view and why he ought to chill out at least. So there was a repeated violation of server rules in a short span of time (and fawx did leave the server).
The ban in the mod log is also for 1 day, not eternal (all of us are human and sometimes we are on rolls we wouldn't continue after a good round of sleep). Don't trust random people when it aligns with your bias.
@GhostOfHoxha@lemmy.ml did give already a critique on your comment in content.
