Every single post and every single comment they ever made was just absolute dogshit. So how the fuck did that happen?
Modding Based_Ball for a joke wablahblahblah.
But yeah, I never understand how that happened exactly. Best I could figure Based was just CONSTANTLY online enough to the point it was like "yeah, why not let them ban some trolls while they're here, fuck it" and it sorta worked for a while.
Honestly that was my assumption as well. I've seen it happen on internet spaces for a long time. You see somebody hanging out long enough you finally just give them a job because nobody else is doing it and fuck it - they're already here.
I cant blame the mods, they need the hands. And I reckon Based would absolutely make a sincere request to be modded, as a bit, and the roll with it when it got reception.
Please be kind and courteous to your fellow leftists. There’s no need to be mean or rude unless it's a chud.
I'm gonna have to see some evidence that B_B was an actual "fellow leftist" first, thanks.
I think you have to give people the benefit of the doubt on here, at least until proven otherwise. Anything less is a fast track to One True Leftist town.
They had some good bits, and they have alts. I hope they can bring more of the good bits to the table and cut out some of the obnoxious shit.
Maybe they shouldn't have been a mod, I don't really know how to evaluate that decision.
Every single post and every single comment they ever made was just absolute dogshit.
If you support the decision to ban them, fine, agree to disagree, but this kind of B_B revisionism is unnecessary. They had a lot of good, creative and funny posts, definitely not all dogshit.
I will say bb was prob the most active member in the mod chat. Posted paragraph on paragraph, man was dedicated
He made a post that said something like "I support all my trans comrades" and then the bottom text said "Except Chris. Fuck Chris."
It was mocking a long-time user, @BrookeBaybee, who recently left (I think?) due to the influx of transphobia trolling. Brooke made a lot of "I love my trans comrades" posts over in !transenby_liberation@hexbear.net, which is what @BASED_BALL was making fun of in that post. She had been making those posts every day since the pronoun shitshow a few months ago as a show of solidarity. I'm sure B_B meant it as a joke, but it was really fucking tone-deaf and just exacerbated the shit that our trans users are already going through.
wait did BB actually yet banned for that??? i thought it was just a goof damn
I'm going to miss them because I feel like they were the only other person who appreciated Land-posting like I do...
