feels to me like there should be kind of outreach and way to connect these communities, i know here is more 'left unity' and shitposty than gzd but still the overlap between the 2 seems too large for it to be worth having 2 separate tiny communities instead of combining them into one bigger one.

i see a ton of stuff that's literally just reposted on both anyway, and neither here or lemmygrad is anywhere close to the size that r/gzd or /r/cth was on reddit. feels like they should be interconnected somehow or one should absorb the other. the online non-corporate social media 'leftist' community is far too small to be split up this much.

i personally vote for hexbear because i like the bear.

      Ok you don’t want GZD here then. They like to shitpost and have struggle sessions and be rowdy. Sounds like you don’t want them here if this is your response so what’s the point of trying to onboard people you will hate?

          This is why GZD posters will not come here or will leave shortly after they get banned for posting a pig poop balls to a mod

          This is why they have problems with the moderation here, this exact attitude

            The attitude of don't be a dick? You might be in the wrong place bud.

              You are the one being a dick right now, I merely suggested creating an autonomous region where they can be themselves and you come right out swinging with invective

              Do you want to have GZD here or not? Because what you are showing me with your attitude is no.

                I honestly don't care, but we're not creating special exclusions from site wide code of conduct for specific subs

                Why do you think that is deserved?

                  It’s not about “deserved” what is with this pseudo-righteous moralist tone?

                  It’s about whether you want to be pragmatic and have GZD here or not. If you don’t want them here, fine. Just say that. Cut this shit about how you want them here but also won’t tolerate their culture.

                  Tolerate them or don’t, I don’t care it’s your site. Just letting you know that your plans of merging the sites or whatever will never work unless you hand over some autonomy to them to retain their culture

                    I mean this place is run by volunteers, it has a culture of left unity. That is core to this place and to make an exception for sectarianism for a specific group undermines that goal.
