For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target federated instances' admins or moderators.

you keep track of people? how?

[–] Dirt_Possum@hexbear.net 14 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I'm not the person you're replying to, but I can't help but remember usernames, especially when paired with a pfp. I don't intentionally keep track of them, but my brain, entirely of it's own accord, insists on storing the identifying information of people who piss me off. It does it to some extent for people I like and think are cool, but it never lets me forget the ones who made me internet-delenda-est enough to reply to them.

Maybe I shouldn't be admitting this, it might help encourage the more pathetic among the attention-seeking trolls.

No, I encourage this, I would much rather have some troll diversity, I'm sick of the ones coming in and saying the most milquetoast generic lib shit, I want them to get really nutty with what they say, just spewing the most absurd nonsense possible!

i do this too and make an effort to let it go because they're nothing more than internet strangers and you're the one burden with this cross.

also: MUCH easier said than done. lol

It doesn't help that every time I forget about them something like this happens.

Or they do a different rant like go on about how nothing using substack can be considered news. Not that substack is good but damn their logic process is awful

You eventually recognize power users or mods. He mods the news comms on .world and has extremely questionable modding policies. I think he might also be an admin at .world but I'm not sure.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 7 months ago

Rumor is their a sub admin or super mod. Which is weird but unsurprising considering how similar he is to all the other admins

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

that would explain why it's such a fucked up community and why it's so chocked full of american propaganda; i always wonder if it's intentional or if it's being spread unwittingly.

[–] Chana@hexbear.net 10 points 7 months ago

Because I've been in threads with him and remember his antics.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 7 months ago

Idk if it they actively are or it's just the amount of times the mod is doing shit like this
