    They've updated that statement to the following:

    Politics alone isn't the issue. That's why hexbear isn't defederated. The issue with lemmygrad was the brigading, trolling, and being ok with wishing death on the people of NATO (not just memes/quips about dismantling the organisation)

    "people of Nato"

    Honestly what is this bullshit. Don't be mean to the willing participants in the machine that spits out death.

      taking progressive language like "people of color" and twisting it to fit into a defense of the war machine, unsurprising!

        It's heritage, not hate. We just want to preserve our traditional culture of imperialist gunboat diplomacy and support for fascist terrorist groups.

        The US has killed way more than 5 million people. It was the main force against the DPRK in the Korean War and killed like 2 million Koreans in that conflict alone (idk how many Chinese)

          I meant to add "in the last two decades" as that's what the report covers, but you're right. I've been at the football and the pub(s) and posted before my brain caught up.

      wishing death on the people of NATO (not just memes/quips about dismantling the organisation)

      "Death to NATO" is wishing death (dismantling) on the organization of NATO, not the people living there. As with "Death to America," etc.

      What a baffling statement. Are the admins related to Stoltenberg or something? Is almost everyone from Hexbear a person of the UN? Is aaaaaaadjsf a BRICSian because he's from South Africa? This brainrot of identifying with the nation-state is apparently now being extended towards a military alliance between nation-states.

      In many ways, it's just the polite lib way of saying they uphold the West and the Western project of ruling the world like any other garden variety fascist.

        Its just a sad morshupls to avoid having to nuke us despite us all having the same opinion on nato-cool as lemmygrad. Absolutely pathetic.

      "You see, the Nazis were bad, and I get that, but those soldiers that did all the genociding had families and stuff and I am sure they also liked the gays."

      That's basically what I gathered from that admin in the 5 minutes I was over there.

        That’s what’s so incredibly frustrating.

        The man who was a critical component of the invasions of nations, including Poland; the staging ground for concentration camps that exterminated LGBT people.

        He was not just a “person of NATO”. He was the chief of the military. But no. Can’t wish death upon their kind. Have to be civil to them. Libs
