Imagine using this site for literally years on the same account, making it through all the purges of reactionary users to date, becoming a well known member of the community only to suddenly go on a racist rant, get banned, nuke your July 2020 account and thereby massively contribute to the Swiss-cheesification of old Hexbear posts, make a bunch of alts to do wrecker shit, and refuse to do even the smallest iota of self crit.
Yeah, sometimes leftists have unexamined reactionary opinions, it happens. But you’d think using Hexbear for that long would go a long way in correcting those opinions, or at least make them more amenable to self crit. Especially since users who are prone to this type of explosive behavior upon being called out usually have this type of outburst within a month or two at most of using this site, not years. Legitimately in awe of how this didn’t happen sooner.
I don’t understand, why don’t I see any of the comment removals in the modlog? Just the ban.
It’s not like I knew him super well, but I followed his posts and enjoyed them. Is there any remote possibility someone got into his account, or are we sure that was him? I mean… if it was his account -chances are it was him, but is there any benefit of the doubt that might possibly be given that maybe someone else was on the account? I mean… carving a fucking swastika?? Like you said, after making it through 2 years of regular chapo.chat/hexbear posting? Maybe I’m just in denial.
He’s been making low key homophobic and misogynist slip-ups for a while, and then doubling down when called out. I’m not shocked that he’s racist too
Hes said a loooot of sus shit. It’s a pattern of behavior. Every time something reactionary he does or thinks gets called out he has a meltdown about it, doubled down, and refuses to hear people out
:cringe:
sad to hear. Seemed cool to me, but I sometimes miss what’s going on around here.
I nuked a hexbear discord once during a mental break, I’m not going to cast stones at the head at least. Tbf I was being sectarian not racist. Other users claimed they he was mentally unwell, so I cringe in sympathy while I laugh.
You nuked the discord?? Bold. heh
Cringe in sympathy is about all I can do right now too, especially since I’m still not clear on what happened. Still surprised, but taking the word of everyone else. If he’s mentally unwell, I hope he gets whatever help is needed.
2 year without getting banned gang
im not much of a poster but still
not being a reactionary rules, just dont go insane if someone disagrees with you and maybe learn something from people who aren’t you
The way I stay unbanned is if something upsets me, I pull back and ask myself why before commenting. If it’s a reactionary thought, I dismiss it.
im still not banned despite like 10k comments
mods, get your shit together
Been here since the beginning. Haven’t gotten banned but have jumped accounts multiple times
Just don’t get into struggle sessions and enjoy the vibes while limiting the doom scrolling to manageable levels
Im still in favor of keeping just 1 chud as a pet
:headpat:
:le-pol-face:
I told him to log off. I told him to find friends in-person. He refused. When you have in-person leftist friends, it’s harder to hold onto the brainworms because there are actual social consequences other than being banned (which you can get around by making alts). It’s why isolation can be a problem for leftists and why you have to work on your social anxiety. Though I suspect some of the anxiety he was experiencing was caused by feelings of being a bad leftist if exposed to other leftists. They would have found him out, pushed him into confronting his brainworms, and then he would have had a meltdown like this. That’s really what the fear was, not talking to other people.
Don’t isolate yourselves. Seek others.
It’s pretty easy to think stupid things and still be a good leftist. I have kinda reactionary views on polyandry, and sometimes the way people talk about their gender or sexuality kinda annoys me( not often, but on occasion. I’mnot going into why or how because it doesn’t matter, it’s brainworms). I just acknowledge my opinions aren’t important and aren’t really leftist and just shut up. I’m a straight white cis man from a decent financial background, there is a lot of programming in me to be reactionary and, if I don’t do the work to dig it all out, the least I can do is shut up and let other people do what is best for them. It’s that easy.
man, I stop paying attention to this website for like 2 hours after dinner to play COD and I miss some hilarious shit
this is what i get for being a cracker on hell island :aus-delenda-est:
seriously, I was dead tired this morning and work ended up being slow, so I almost spent 8 fucking hours scrolling through a hexbear tab instead of doing any of the tasks I get paid for
and all I got was psych rock night being rubbed in my face while I was on the computer that has cytube blocked, and a bit about gender being the states of matter that like 4 of us laughed at.
come on now
Okay this is my time:
Marmite is awesome and cool, and anyone that disagrees is pee pee poo poo and bad
I sleep in ONCE and I have to miss one of the oldest accounts destroying two years of respect on the site in the matter of an hour
I’ve been crafting the hot take that will finally get me banned for a long time. I’m almost ready to unleash it on the world
If I ever articulated my true feelings about cats on this site you all would definitely give me the wall.
Does it involve the sentiment that telling someone to touch grass is ableist because it assumes that they aren’t dead inside and therefore unable to feel? Asking for a friend.
