Comment by iie [they/them, he/him]@hexbear.net on Hexbear, various lemmy libs want to know, do you unironically support Trump? Sorry for the tedious question and thanks if you bother to answer it lol. If you do respond please be kinda serious.

no need to write an essay or anything

some libs and baby leftists are kinda baffled by the trump banter here and don’t know what’s serious and what’s irony

2 day old account so could you clarify? Hexbears are not incapable of racism, sexism, and other bigotry, people have been banned for it in the past, but

that same irony poisoning makes them think its chill to post racist stuff because nothing matters apparently

you’re painting with a pretty broad brush here, essentially characterizing the entire site as racist, and your edit also calls us a hivemind. From a new account that’s kinda sus.

Mods can ban me if they want. They know what the deal is.

I would like to know what the deal is

There is a group of 15 ish I would guess people who who like to stir shit by posting racist stuff because they know it will set me off and cause a scene. It happens fairly regularly.

You are right that I was painting a little broadly.

This is all still pretty vague, can you give an example?

If you were in new at all in the past week there were numerous posts of people pushing the line to see how far they could take the bigotry and slurs. I get we’re all doing a fun thing acting like it didn’t happen but yeah. I’m not digging through people’s post histories.

Edit: Because someone outside looking in might be wondering what is going on.

There were several posts like this. I had to throw a shit fit and put a target on my back to get the post removed. They think its very funny to pretend like this didn’t happen.

So again I will restate: If anyone wants any non-hivemind answers to any questions, I’m happy to oblige.

Maybe I wasn’t in new in the past week because I didn’t see this. I think it’s weird for a new account to vaguepost about hexbear bigotry in a thread where the title implies it will be shown to outsiders. I don’t want to dismiss what you’re saying in case you’re telling the truth, but it’s pretty suspicious, and it would be less suspicious if you could give any details at all.

*per the edit, yeah alright fair lol, fuck cumtown
