Since when does that stop Hexbear from calling out people on Lemmy?

    There's probably a million comments made every day across Lemmy that Hexbear doesn't make an endorsement or condemnation of. Are we supposed to be the Lemmy police? We call out some stuff that gets directed our way, sometimes we call out things that are directed more generally that we think are bigoted or problematic, but unless you're arguing that we have a responsibility to police every interaction on the platform and pick a side to endorse every time, I don't see the problem here.

    Well seeing the moment someone calls out authoritarian socialist policies y'all jump to defending them, I think y'all could stand to use the same energy to do something slightly better.

    If we had to intervene every time someone used problematic language (and I'm not talking slurs, way more subtle things) then we would literally have to go on a crusade in every single thread ever. You're not being a serious person if you really think this is a reasonable thing to expect.
