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
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 DARE YOU GET RID OF THE PORN
I CANT DEAL WITH OPENING A SECOND WEBSITE TO JACK OFF
:Frotting-fash:
Not even porn, he’s bitching about jailbait type stuff
CW: 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.
Jesus. I thought that ended with Violentcrez.
They responded to me accusing me of being transphobic for saying I wouldn't want to date a chaser
I saw that too. Truly vile shit.
Yeah at that point I was going to bring up like, how lots of people reported the message, and how they had a site wide struggle session over it that the head mod had to step into, so obviously it wasn't just me thinking that, but then I just decided that anyone saying anything that disingenuous wasn't worth engaging and just logged off

I mean they still ratioed me but I hold the moral high ground there
let me at em let me at em no one ratios my trans comrades
What gross comments, good on you for stepping away from it
ew ew ewwwwww
Nyooo, don't ban me. My back, asscrack and legs are very hairy.
Getting older for me is just having more and more hair show up in places I don't want it to. It's some bullshit lol. I was already shaving my face every day by the end of high school because of their crappy rules, and it's only gotten worse in the years since then. I liked it at first, but now it seems by the time I hit 35 I'll be a full blown gorilla or something lmao
I hit puberty at 5 and had neckbeard and back hair since. At least I look youthful I guess.
how do i unread this?
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.
Absolutely the right decision, every new vile comment I see from there just confirms it. ~~Unreal~~ too real that it presents as a trans inclusive space
Isn't moss a trans woman?
See, this is why it's completely unworkable to not have pronoun tags.
