Sorry (🍁) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several complaints we defederated from hexbear.net yesterday.

Here’s a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users:

They warned their users to behave themselves, but that didn’t work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

    You’re not advocating for violence, so why would you be banned?

    We don’t want to prevent reasonable discourse with opposing opinions, we just don’t want an army of trolls and (literal) shit posters overwhelming everyone else.

      Is he not? He said only violence gets anything done and “that guy threatening landlords is, like it or not, correct.” I guess you could be extremely generous with assuming he likes society exactly as it is?

        He’s edited his comment and I’m pretty sure it wasn’t that aggro when I read it last night, unless I was really that tired.
