NSFW, CW ableism/slurs against neurodivergents

They have very ableist images on their site, the user posting them isn't banned, nor is their comment deleted. At least some bit account calls them out on it. I will not directly link to the user's profile as it contains a flashing image useful to trigger epileptic attacks.

During only the thread in regards to the hexbear de-federation alone I encountered several -isms which would have gotten you banned on hexbear. This means that the lemmy dot world mods and part of its user base are "asshats" and couldn't be trusted in many hexbear communities.

Edit Since posting the link to the comment doesn't work anymore. I was on the edge whether to post it or not, but think in regards to the current federation / de-federation questions going on we ought to be quick at banning users if they reproduce hard ableism.

Warning flashing image!

Here is the mentioned user's profile https://lemmy.world/u/gsa32

It is obvious that they are not even following the "be friendly" dot world code of conduct and ableism is accepted on the instance.

Collection of infractions lemmy dot world doesn't fix CWs

User Aux with anticommunism, but more importantly also ableism:

/u/zombuey writes: these people really crossing the line between “ideology” and mental illness.

Bit Account: well said one step into their tankie cave and you can see how many are infected by the woke mind virus

Aux: Their ideology IS a mental illness.

Aux: As you know, I’m anti-defed. But in this instance I’m with admins. Hexbear is a cesspool for genocidal lunatics.

Or

I can usually tell how mentally ill someone is by how often they use the word “woke” lol

Implying more ableism:

I read this mostly like “they seem like a bunch of assholes so we’re defederating so we don’t have to interact with a bunch of assholes”. Cause the folks on Hexbear seem intense (sic!) compared to lemmygrad, etc. I know it’s really the anti-NATO stuff, but eh.

One good, but dowvoted user though: https://lemmy.world/comment/1973239

    They also don't seem to care about transphobia. I once called out a user there on their history of transphobic comments across the site, and they were still posting in the thread about Hexbear defederation (ironically, one of their upvoted comments was ”The BBC is transphobic? Since when?” I-was-saying ).
