The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of “left solidarity”
Rather than trying to start a conspiracy, why not just ask your admin if they sent the message in question?
I can think of a simple explanation. The mod in the screen shot, C4RC0S4, copied and pasted the original message they received from the Hexbear admin and sent it as a message to the mod, Moss’s alt, who posted that message as a screen shot. edit: typo
No that’s just their admin’s alt. A quick glance at their comment history confirms it. It was made before hexbear federated
I thought I had seen that admin name before on Hexbear. I wasn’t able to bring up the Hexbear account with the search bar, so I didn’t want to assume. edit: But if it’s just an alt then I’m not sure where I saw it now.
Removed by mod
That explains my confusion, thanks.
