Now that the old Hexbear fork has been officially abandoned, this community will be used as a space for meta-discussion on the site itself.

db0 and Unruffled have both been banned for reactionary behavior and, in the case of the former, DM harassment.

Due to these irreconcilable differences we thought it only right to allow the community to weigh in on defederating immediately.

According to this person "tankie" is anyone that criticizes the privilege of white westerners in the imperial core who have been privileged and comfortable their entire lives off of the backs of colonized people.

Fuck those enlightened centrist "anarchists", let them whine about how authoritarian it is that they can't comment here anymore after acting like assholes and having "nuanced views" on genocide.

Still, I think the instance has some good people that would be a shame to lose if they aren't ready yet to make an account here. Being open to instances that resemble more closely the actual society we're trying to change will always be a great way for people to get radicalised and take their first steps of learning about Marxism and socialism.
