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
Again what slurs?
All I see are people joking about crackkkers, please tell me that’s not what you’re upset about
no that’s not what they’re upset about. Playing around with the slur filter was a little weird. I think the intent of the thread was just to celebrate the slur filter, but – and, I don’t want to put words in their mouth lol, but I’m just trying to take the burden off them having to explain with no backup – I think the ambiguity was kinda uncomfortable for this user, like “do some of these people just want to say slurs and have the slur filter cover it for them?” and they had seen some other kinda weird posts lately, and it started to feel like a pattern.
They’re not saying “people are joking about the slur filter in a way that makes me suspicious” they’re saying:
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.
Sorry, I’m open to the idea that racist shit is said on HB and even that some of it doesn’t get reported and removed, but the implication here (by someone with a 2-day old Hexbear account, on a Lemmy.ml thread) that there is a problem with HB users being actively racist. If you want to throw such a serious accusation like that around you need better evidence than this
Yeah this is also kinda weird and flippant, a pattern of posts like this would bug me too
I appreciate it. I’m literally not trying to be a pain in the ass I just absolutely cannot abide bigotry. This isn’t my first rodeo going through this. The staff needs to decide if ironic bigotry is expressly allowed and stop being cowards and say it, or they need to have the mods start removing it.
this also doesn’t include slurs? it’s a joke about the slur filter. you literally can’t post slurs through it and, as the admins noted in the thread, if you try, you’ll get banned because they log people who post slurs removed by the filter. I’ve reported people who have used spacing to post a slur through it and the mods immediately deleted the post.
edit:
I had to throw a shit fit and put a target on my back to get the post removed.
also what’s this about? what target on your back?
I can interpret the thread innocently but I can also see where malingeringwastrel would start to see something between the lines if there were a bunch of posts like that in a short period, which is what they are claiming. It makes sense to be suspicious of a new account but I can also see where someone genuine might be coming from.
oh no I get the suspicion, I was also a little sus of those posts. it’s just weird to make more out of them than is actually in the threads, especially on a days old account.
