WTF is happening on Hexbear? (lemmygrad.ml)

Hexbear's new head of operations just dropped, and their way of dealing with the fallout of their last struggle session is to hand bans out like candy to their concerned and disillusioned users while throwing out "epic" quips like insecure teenagers along the way coupled with their communication (and seemingly contempt) towards their own userbase which isn't helping their allegations at all and the revelations that were learned about Hexbear's moderators and admins from their most recent struggle session.

The last few days have honestly shaken my faith in Hexbear and their team and I hope the mods and admins at Lemmygrad are monitoring the situation closely.

Pal that was a joke.

Huh? What about the context of that post sounds like joking to you?

The cult of personality thing is a joke, there is nobody here with a cult of personality around them. The point they’re making is that this isn’t just a ritual where you turn your brain off and praise __, like multitotal’s 1984 comparison, but that praise comes because the thing is correct and people are understanding that on their own.

I'm gonna need the original poster to confirm it's a joke, not a secondhand read because I don't see anything joking in the tone of it and I've seen at least one other comment that also implied putting this person on a pedestal.

I think it was my comment, and no it was not a joke. You can kinda see the results of this...idk following? Reputation? here in this thread. I don't know why a not insignificant amount of hexbears seem to believe TC69 is beyond reproach. Legit all the people I saw arguing with her and getting banned were upset about the apparent transphobia in the mod team.

It wasn’t your comment.

My apologies then.
