On Blahaj and 196 - Hexbear
hexbear.netDue to multiple factors, such as unaddressed ableist removals

no-quarter rules regarding our users

leakage of good-faith DMs from our admin team [https://hexbear.net/post/361826],
and a general lack of initiative to punish these behaviors, we have come to the
conclusion that the 196 community on lemmy.blahaj.zone has made the fediverse an
unsafe space for our queer, disabled, neurodivergent, non-western, and other
marginalized comrades on this forum, and we will be defederating from
lemmy.blahaj.zone until we can be confident that this will not continue to be an
issue. We have attempted to make good-faith parley with both the instance admin
and the comm moderators, but we've reached a point which we feel that until
these behaviors are addressed by instance administration, we can no longer
continue to federate in good-faith while our users are being actively
invalidated by a small-but-vocal portion of the forum. Once we are confident
that these behaviors have ceased and are unlikely to continue, we are
more-than-happy to refederate in the name of queer solidarity. Thanks for
bearing with us :07:
They’re using it as a shield, but it’s also much worse than that, it’s textbook toxic manipulators trying to control the narrative: „Look what you made me do!“. They’re trying to guilt-shame the other party into submission.
The utter lack of LGBT content on
hexbearwhinograd is quite telling, also apparently someone on there took notice and they’re trying really hard to push some pro-trans memes now 😂It’s the same as, “I’m not a racist. I have a friend who is _____.”
What’s a cost?
Ducking autocucumber!
I meant to type “racist” but my phone changed it to “cost” and I didn’t notice.
I honestly saw plenty of pro-trans stuff there before. Loke, an inordinate amount
