Sorry (🍁) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several complaints we defederated from hexbear.net yesterday.

Here’s a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users:

They warned their users to behave themselves, but that didn’t work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

Posting the western atrocity propaganda and pig poop balls is hilarious but will pretty quickly get you banned and if enough of us do it defederated.

    You clearly think there is value in it, because you believe in it, want me to believe it too, and you are trying to convince me it’s right. If you wanted to convince yourself, you wouldn’t be talking, you’d be meditating. Yet here you are, arguing with me about it.

    It’s okay for people to believe what they say. Whatever it is you think will be true if people believe what they say but don’t want to be true, it doesn’t matter. Someday you’ll see that.

      and you are trying to convince me it’s right.

      I’m not sure I see the logic in that. Of what value would there be in convincing you that it is right? I have no agency over your brain. It means nothing to me. I wouldn’t try to convince a stone that I am right and the only difference between you and a stone is that you can speak back, hopefully offering knowledge when you do.

      It’s okay for people to believe what they say.

      It’s okay, but what’s the value proposition? It takes work to say things. The brain expects payment for the work it does. Knowledge can be sufficient payment, but if you have a belief no more knowledge can be acquired. It is final. I’m not receiving cash, a hug, anything. So, what is it that I have overlooked?
