Why would a Hexbear user do this?

Like, beyond your accusation that we’re fostering the kinds of users that have CSAM on hand, what possible reason would any of us have to try to shut down any instance let alone one that is by-and-large friendly (or at least neutral) to Hexbear?

TC69 did nothing wrong and the pronoun option setting these types off without fail is a constant reminder of this.

This is called gaslighting when its done intentionally but when its done unintentionally it can often be a sign of a personality disorder.

IDK, armchair diagnosing someone like this comes across as ableist.

This you?

TL:DR you lost an argument and want to make it everyone else’s problem.

Thank you.

At the risk of sounding optimistic, the culture shock of our respective instances federating feels like it’s starting to die down now and folks can finally get on with more respectful discussion.

Hexbear user here so I’ve no say in whether you defed or not.

Just wanted to say, I appreciate how level headed you’ve been in this post and with defederation as a whole even though your previous interaction with Hexbear users has made you the target of comments that were heated (to say the least).

Reddit and twitter X, racing to see who can burn their company to ash the quickest.
