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 I know what you mean. I find the user credible enough that at minimum I don’t want to see them bullied or ganged up on, but I agree it’s a little sus from a new account. I don’t think we’re gonna resolve the ambiguity either, since I get the impression this user doesn’t have the energy to prosecute a case and dig for more examples. At the end of the day I’d rather err on the side of being receptive to complaints that might be difficult or uncomfortable for the user to articulate, at the risk of letting a vagueposting wrecker slide, as long as the potential wrecker’s not too bad.
