I... what? context? I'm not sure how to read this. What happened exactly?
POV: the same mod:
Revisionist rats! I did nothing but good for your project, yet you banned me for my ideology in haste! I gave you many chances to unban me, I could have made thousands of edits, yet you rejected me. Now… you have forced me to go THERMONUCLEAR!
That ideology was Hoxhaism....
Jk aside, sorry man about Hoxhaism but in my context, I remember just hearing about this self-proclaimed "Hoxhaist" guy called Comrade Wenger or WisCom on Lemmygrad
He basically slammed modern China as revisionist and kept on griefing the Prolewiki sites
This lemmydbzer mod kinda gives off similar vibes....
Iirc we used to have our own resident hoxhaist on hb in the ChaCha days
until she(?) (icr the pronouns) got really drunk and started posting slurs at usersEdit: apparently the slur person was someone else / it came to me in a dream
Iirc the lore is actually that @Enver_Hoxha@hexbear.net took the username so nobody else could use it, or something like that. She called everybody tankies. It was a confusing bit.
Maybe I was confusing her with someone else with the slurs bit then, idk, the sites early days are kind of hazy in my memory bcs I mostly lurked back then
Maybe... you can read more about him, just search up the quote's origins...
mod of an empty comm removed a crosspost from hexbear today, 2 months after it was initially posted, for reason that hexbear is a “revisionist hellhole”

A comment by the comm’s mod this week: luckily this isn’t HexBear but a de-revisionized socialist zone (read: actually socialist Lemmy community)
A website that's completely empty really can't be revisionist, I suppose.
Somehow I'm less bothered by them calling us revisionists than I am them finishing that same comment with "(I'm not bothered about their downdoots btw)"
This took me a minute to understand too, particularly as I remembered the original thread.

Just as Lemmygrad predicted...
I'd love to hear that mods' definition of revisionism, 9/10 it's something racial or sexual
