Greetings gamers and those who wisely abstain,

It has become clear to us that even in the short while we’ve federated, the situation with sh.itholefor.nazis is entirely untenable and we will be defederating immediately. Multiple instances of ableist and homophobic slurs directed at our users, overwhelming litigiousness against even the most innocuous comments by our users, and just a general ethos of reactionary behavior. We’re done and out.

One of the concerns with embracing TC69 thought on site bans with federation is that the user would basically be just hexbear-side hidden and blocked from our comms, free to post reactionary content without the fear of Lenin behind them. That was a silly concern. We will resume our pre-federation policies regarding site bans.

    I trust the mods and i know they have my back, but creating and maintaining a safe space isn't just about removing harmful content in time, it's about not giving the userbase the feeling they have to worry about that kind of thing.

      I fully agree. One of my favorite things about being here is I don't have to encounter chuddery. When I'm having an especially tough mental health day, it's nice to come here and shit on libs with y'all
