Hello all! @sweet_pecan@hexbear.net is taking a well-deserved break so I'll be posting the mega in the foreseeable future. How are we all doing? I truly can't believe it's almost 2025.

REMEMBER, EM POC ONLY!!!

        From what I can tell (and recall) Frauddogg took issue with Funk's statement on a Hexbear user contacting the FBI to submit a FOIA request about Hexbear

        This website is not a threat to capital. This response is frankly ridiculous.

        Which frauddogg called a settler take.

        To be clear I think someone toying with government attention (especially without anyone's consent) should be taken seriously and Hexbear has been a lifeline to a lot of users.

          Yeah, I think that was a stupid justification on FunkYankkkees' part, however, when FunkYankkkees responded back with "invader", honestly, frauddogg's confrontational response just showed he couldn't handle his own medicine

          (you can go to his lemmygrad account to still see his confrontational attitude over time, which is understandable but unhealthy if you're espousing it repeatedly)

          I think while Funk was wrong on the FOIA, I think frauddogg's overall attitude, especially his response, just dug a deeper ditch for himself

        I think a lot of people are going to take it the wrong way and assume because frauddogg wasn't perfect in this one situation, they can disregard everything frauddog has ever said (even when correct). It's also a case of minorities being expected to be informed and perfect 100% of the time, while whitey is allowed to say stupid shit.

        Don't think it was wrong to call something "a settler take." You wouldn't e-mail the CIA/Mossad/MI6 asking them if they've seen a group's Facebook page. Doubling down on being part of the American war machine, however, is not good.
