I don’t know why this take hits me so hard. It’s so utterly comical in my brain. It’s such a bizarre idea to me that we’re going to be bleeding the users who have been here when it was literally only hexbear after a week or two of federation because, what, do they think their posting power is going to sway people over there? This is one of the least controversial site decisions to have happened over on this side of the coin. The idea of this being a phenomenon that will happen with multiple, let alone even one of our pre-federation users is so utterly incompatible with my mental model of Hexbear that I can’t fucking get over it. It’s fucking fascinating 
if you are one of these people planning to exodus to blahaj full-time please let me know because it’s too good of a bit to keep to yourself
ah yes, let me back up my bags and move to the… checks notes transphobic trans instance. purge your fucking chasers you

Yes I’m sure the people that have been here for 3 years without any federation are going to leave because they aren’t federated with chasers that say “people of nato” anymore.
Absolutely wild take.
The best part is that I know for sure a few blahaj members have opened accounts here.
Surely hexbear will bleed a ton of members to the site that just offended a bunch of our queer comrades…
They know nothing about us. Lol
ngl they know nothing about anything, these people are some of the least informed libs i’ve ever seen
and you know that bar is in hell
And now the freaks are crawling out of the woodworks. Go check NuMetalAlchemist’s post history. Completely full of creepy shit like this:
CW Fucking creepy shit from a fucking creep
How is that person not banned holy shit
Because Moss, the head mod of c/196, is a chaser as well, and blahaj zone’s idea of trans inclusivity is saying trans rights a lot and then doing nothing against the transphobes in their midst because user count is more important than safety. They also still haven’t banned Mewtwo, the guy who claims that we’re all just conservatives who fake being trans. Defederating was the right idea, i don’t feel safe with that cesspool around.

Not even porn, he’s bitching about jailbait type stuff
Jesus. I thought that ended with Violentcrez.
Reddit momentCW: mentions of CSA
“No, you don’t understand! The comm was called fauxbait as in faux jailbait! I’m not jacking it to children just adults that look like children, and are sexualised because of how childlike they look! No this isn’t CP with extra steps! You’re just sensitive!”
Actual argument I saw during lemmyNSFW defed.

it’s always the same comment
[…] being exposed to Hexbear’s community and content has made me extremely concerned. […] There are posts denying genocide, calls to violence, blatant Russian propaganda, apologists galore for authoritarianism, and the constant assurance that anyone not agreeing with these ideas was obviously a Fascist.
Like five people are going to make accounts over there while retaining accounts here so they can still post on both, so basically hexbear has fallen.
Also do we even have the version of lemmy that lets you block communities

So did hexbear ended up defederating from blahaj? Last I saw there was a statement from the hexbear community over on blahaj. Now blahaj said something like hexbear instantly defederated while blahaj admin was asleep and couldn’t take care of the problems. Interesting how hexbear defederated this time, oh how the turns have tabled.
yeah, we defederated. it wasn’t worth subjecting vulnerable members of our community to transphobia, ableism, and racism coming from or being defended by the mod team. “taking care of the problem” in their eyes was a scolding while on hexbear we’ve permabanned site mods for far less. our mod team made the call and the userbase was unanimously in support of the decision.
