Greetings dear lemm.ee folks,

I have noticed an increasing number of lemm.ee users dissatisfied with Hexbearians. Reading through the modlogs on hexbear.net, I have observed truckloads of lemm.ee users being banned on hexbear.net, meaning that they won't see any Hexbearian's reply to them since Hexbearians aren't able to see their comments. Despite this, I have yet to see the complaints from lemm.ee die down. May I politely ask, what is it that makes so many lemm.ee users hate us? And, how can we improve? Thanks!

I humbly request that all parties involved in the comments refrain from using slurs or name-calling to reduce the workload on mods and admins.

      For an illustrative example of why every sane person who has had contact with "hexbearians" is exasperated by them, just look at any comment made by a "hexbearian" in this thread. Y'all are delusional af, and combative to boot.

      Everyone that disagrees with @bucho@lemmy.one is insane and deluded, a bedtime story for smug crybully liberals. smuglord

      Fucking rich that you cry about "combativeness" when you lead with the above post.

        Well, I didn't say that. You did. And I disagree with it. What I said is that "hexbearians" are generally delusional, and I feel pretty vindicated in that assessment by the many, many posts by them in this thread. As an example of delusion, you decided that you know enough about me to infer that I believe that everybody whose opinions differ from my own must be delusional, despite very little evidence to back that claim up.

        Fucking rich that you cry about “combativeness” when you lead with the above post.

        Pointing something out that is true is not crying. And yes. You're very combative.

        Ok. There's also several examples of the combativeness I described right here in this thread as well, if you'd care to look at the evidence I've cultivated.

            I get that that seems like a cut and dried definition in your mind, but it doesn't to the rest of us. Could you explain it better? What does a redditor act like, and how is that not appropriate?

            Put your big girl pants on, and deal with the fact that people are “combative”

            I'm replying to you aren't I? I haven't blocked you, which I could very easily do. I'm attempting to treat you as an adult, though you are very adamantly insisting on not acting like one. So, tell me - how is my behavior running counter to your idea of "dealing with combative people"?

            Ok, well... I'm not a transphobe. And ideologically speaking, I think that you and I would probably share many of the same beliefs.

            Despite that, you can see the responses to my posts here from some of the... louder members of your community. These people represent you. They are why several instances have defederated from hexbear. So... that's the combativeness I'm describing.

              You came in here passive-aggressively claiming that all the "sane" people are against Hexbear and that the people of Hexbear were "deluded" because they didn't agree with you.

              You're just another ableist crybully. One of you shows up, like, daily.

                I would agree with you, except you and several of your confederates have shown up to provide ample evidence supporting my thesis. So I think that means I'm probably right. We all agree that you lot are delusional and combative.

                  You're conjuring up a complete-agreement consensus of everyone unspoken for all agreeing with you that your perceived political enemies are universally delusional. Irony meters are exploding everywhere.

                  Yes, we over on Hexbear are beholden to combatting liberalism, reactionaries, racism, transphobia, apologia for cops, landlords, imperialism, capitalism, etc.

                  If this makes you uncomfortable that is your problem.

              The pattern I observe is people rolling up and being intentionally shitty to try to provoke a response- you even said as much in another post.

              If people are operating in bad faith have no issue with people dunking on them.

              I'm a communist, I'm used to liberals reacting with horror and stigma to opinions I have. That's honestly what makes a lot of the hexbear complaint threads so interesting.

              I'll go into to other lemmies where people are so offended and look at what they posted and it's usually vile shit that deserved scorn.

                In this thread, one of the members from hexbear asked why people are defederating from them. I answered, and your fellow "hexbearians" were kind enough to chime in in response to my post providing an incredible amount of evidence backing up my answer.

                While most normal people would see a post like mine and just move past it, I've gotten probably about 20 - 25 responses from angry tankies filling up my inbox. And none of them have made anything resembling a point so far.

                  It's literally a meta post about us and you are somehow shocked that we show up to explain/defend ourselves?

                  How does this prove anything you have asserted?

                  If anything it proves how wrong you are.

            See - this is a perfect illustration of the "delusional" aspect I mentioned. You are so far up your own backside that you believe everybody who doesn't believe the specific set of things you do are nazis, or reminiscent of same. It's why no sane, rational person should ever take you seriously.

            I applaud you, actually. You jumped to provide concrete examples backing up my thesis immediately. Super bro move of you.

                        I did not make excuses for nazis. The person that I was responding to made an incredibly slippery slope argument, and I was using hyperbole to point that out. If you don't understand that, I suggest you take a remedial class in English at your local community college.

                  Surely if they had suffered brain damage as a child, that means they are worthy of contempt, scorn, and ridicule by default according to your not-a-nazi nazi talking points. What would you have done with them? Put them in camps? hitler-detector

                  You've been crying about combativeness since you came in here to accuse everyone on Hexbear of insanity and delusions. Which, again, totally not nazi talking points to imply that anyone with mental illness is a fundamentally bad and unworthy person, unlike you. scared-fash
