Yes.

I’m sensitive to racial issues but the way they go about discussing them devalues them in the same way that I used to devalue them, and reliving my mistakes in every comment section is killing me. Also, everything turns into twitch chat after they arrive.

Former* racist sad to find people repeating their mistakes by getting swept into a group of “satirists” just doing “a little trolling.” I wish you expediency in finding your “former” in the future. Only you can do it, my race baiting friend.

Aye. If I want to see their content I can read it on a hexbear amount. They just flood my feed with memes and only barely tangentially related comments that are trying to bait people into saying something that they think gives them the high ground. They’re like the arch Linux users of identity politics.

It’s funny how the faux-leftists accuse us of hating idpol and the more open reactionaries accuse us of being monolithically concerned with it.

I don’t think you’re monolithic at all honestly. The the fact is, hexbear isn’t a hivemind, is a lot of different people. There’s just a very vocal minority that makes your instance look bad.

Aye.

I knew that the toxicity of reddit was affecting me, but I didn’t realize just how much until the move to Lemmy back in June. Everything was just so nice, people just happily chatted in comments, most disagreements were talked through or an “agree to disagree” arrangement was reached. Seeing the rude, angry people and the trolls creep back in was so disappointing (though I do realize it’s inevitable. I used to mod forums back in the day.) Having a good chunk of those negative types on one instances is a positive thing, though. With the tools at hand, we can nip it in the bud by just blocking the lot of them.

Something I think people forget in all these many posts about blocking instances is that blocking is not a permanent thing. The mods aren’t hitting the big red button and nuking the instance from existence forever. It can be undone. Times change, people change, forums/subreddits/instances change as they age. If it looks like things may have improved in a blocked instance, the ban can be lifted.

Aye.

They’re obviously here just to troll and brigade. The offer nothing of value, while making this instance more annoying.

Aye.

I was going to vote against it on principle, but I’m just really tired of their shit.
