Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Where does blahaj say they have no quarter for hexbear users (I see lemmygrad users, but not hexbear) and how is being okay with trans people but personally preferring boobs over penises "chaser" behavior? Why is screenshotting relevant DMs between admins defed-worthy? Is removing heated political conversations ableist? (I see the "X-tard" part of the screenshot, but 80% of the screenshot looks like a communist getting mad and borderline ad hominem, beyond any point about using appropriate language.)
I'm a leftist and all for the Fediverse being able to choose who to federate with, but often the receipts posted by Fedi admins seem incredibly weak. Absolutely protect marginalized people with your full strength and might, but it seems like the people most directly hurt here are the hexbear admin themself. But I don't know, I'm just a random nobody, all I can see are the receipts the admin shows me 🤷
Yep. They read a bunch of stuff in the worst possible light ever, called the people involved a bunch of nasty names, and left. Basically typical Hexbear behavior.
They will not be missed.
lemmy.blahaj.zone is run by trans women. That's the thing that weirds me out the most. The owners are trans but hexbear is trying to make it sound like they're some kinda Nazi anti-lgbt crowd.
Edit: all I can say is that I'm glad that my doesn't seem to be federated with hexbear.
It feels like an effective way to undermine vulnerable people. Just accuse them of shit that makes them look bad to their target audience. It's up there with accusing people of doing things that you're actually doing to convince people that what you're doing is normal.
The Nazis accused the Jews of being pedophiles. This has been part of the extremist playbook for ever.
The conservative way.
Hexbear's entire point in federating was to fuck shit up.
