I think we have a general path forward based on community feedback. “We see you, we hear you!”
I went ahead and unpinned the old post. I’m pinning this one for now and will edit this post when I wake up from eepy time. I had a very mid week and have no particular alarm set so be on look out. Love y’all and I’m amped for my first announcement post since coming back. :)
A user of hexbear on an alt account keeps attacking people with harsh personal insults and tells them to kys if they disagree with them. They showed up yesterday and have not stopped.
The funniest part was them telling me to go die because I’m a chauvinistic white male or something, even though most of the posts I’ve made on this website (and in particular to the community in question, the dunk tank) consist of calling precisely that attitude out and mocking racists, along with high effort posts encouraging users to read theory that counters chauvinism, in particular Samir Amin’s Eurocentrism, and Unequal Development.
The phone is coming from inside the house lol
Are we allowed to say the names this person uses as more permanent accounts? It seems to me that if it is obvious who this person is, we shouldn’t be shy about “naming and shaming.” But maybe it’s not obvious?
I’ll just come out and ask. Is this person who keeps making the debatebro*@thelemmy.club accounts to say cringe wrecker shit and then promptly getting banned the same person who goes by u/HelltakerHomosexual ? The latter being a mod of several comms here? And is HelltakerHomosexual the same person as u/Catradora_Stalinism who was repeatedly temp and permabanned but given warnings and unbanned, then finally truly permanently banned because they simply couldn’t stop wrecking, provoking fights, and being vehemently anti-vegan? IF that is the case, then it’s clear she still can’t stop wrecking.
Tagging @booty@hexbear.net and @REgon@hexbear.net since they were insinuating that at least some of the above was true in comments on the post that’s locked now. On the one hand, I realize this is treading dangerously near to drama posting, but I honestly want to know if a past permabanned known wrecker is still an active part of the community and if they are still in fact wrecking like they were before when they got banned. That’s not about drama, and It seems like a fair thing for the community as a whole to know.
Nah I was straight up saying they’r the same person. It’s pretty obvious. The only thing that made me in doubt was some weird timing with the dipshit who’s modding a comm he doesn’t like.
It’s pretty clear there’s a good group of people who know who it is too, so wish they’d do something about that or do some self crit and consider what “toxic debatebro culture” entails (hint: it’s not enjoying a comm you dislike)
Has the main user been banned yet?
No
