Here is them antagonizing an indigenous comrade.

I want to credit the mod/admin team for making this site a welcoming place for many marginalized peoples since its inception. But when indigenous comrades are leaving the site in droves I think there's something really wrong. I know modding is a thankless job and I don't want to add to y'alls burden but I feel more needs to be done to make this site a safe space for our indigenous comrades.

Context and intent is important. Saying it in response to someone calling out someone else for mass re education of indigenous people and all the baggage associated with it and hand waving it away by saying "they'll just assimilate" is chauvinistic af.

Anotha one and here is an indigenous comrade who posted it on her leaving post

Animal liberation is the goal, any culture - whether it’s indigenous or not - will assimilate and evolve as culture always has

Sure, I agree. But a mod calling for cultural assimilation of indigenous people is not a good look and should not get a pass just cause they're vegan and a mod.

What am I supposes to do? report it? I did but the mod there was agreeing with it and didn't remove it.

I'm saying a mod calling for checks notes assimilation of indigenous people(with all of its history and baggage) on hexbear.net calls for demodding at best and banning at worst.

Oh when non-vegans do it, its shitstirring. Ok got it.

Also this comment is still up and that person is still a mod of that comm.

What is there to struggle about this except absolute criticism? Is there anything or anyone to defend it?

Edit: or are you saying cultural genocide is a topic for strugglesesh on a socialist website?

@DashEightMate @WhyEssEff @TransComrade69 Why the hell was this removed? No one is having a struggle session over cultural genocide.

Animal liberation is the goal, any culture - whether it’s indigenous or not - will assimilate and evolve as culture always has

• a mod of that comm

It was upvoted and there was a mod right in that thread who didn't ban them. Not until I made the post, so this shit needs to be aired.

chacha ‘stop assuming everyone you disagree with online is white’ challenge [march 2021] [impossible]

Also holy bad faith. No one is making that argument.

Indigenous person: I support veganism but please don't be racist about it.

This genius: Ah you omnis weaponising First Nations traditional practices to defend eating meat. So gross.

What are you even trying to say?

Which indigenous person is saying they don't respect your right to your beliefs? Its the vegans yesterday and today that called them 'uneducated' and implied backwardness in their beliefs.

They should be housewives, but they can’t ask for money or else they’re gold diggers who should get a job.

My POS father.

Asking people money so I don't starve through the night is definitely not soul crushing. Not at all. No sir.
