I've noticed a lot of :morshupls: and :debatebro-l: from carnists going unmoderated in this community even after being reported and was wondering why. I decided to have a look at the list of mods to find out, and discovered the following:
- @ella has not made a post or comment on Hexbear since December 2021.
- @DashEightMate has not made a post or comment on Hexbear since May 2021.
- @Dirtbag has never made a post or comment on Hexbear.
- @Kanna posts or comments on a fairly regular basis - once a week or so - but this clearly isn't enough for the only active mod of this community.
If c/vegan is going to be in any sense useable as a place for vegans to discuss our ideas in a friendly environment, rather than yet another platform on which we must battle carnists at every turn, we're going to need some new blood on the mod team.
This is all my fault. I posted vegancirclejerk level memes 4 days in a row. Sorry all, I was just annoyed with the discourse on left/liberal Twitter and I needed a safe outlet for my feelings.
Don't stop, this is what this com needs
Never apologize for agitating
