Remove SJW bc its full of fascists and reactionaries.

https://sh.itjust.works/

Also allow me to personally ban them if they cone back :)

Seconded. This was one too many. They aren't even libs they're chuds.

Poison_Ivy and AntiOutsideAktion are right. Half of the place is openly fascist, and the other half is cryptofascist.

There can't be any good faith discussion in that place.

I regret voting in favor of federating with them.

Sorry, comrades.

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

agreed. plus they're more willing to harass people in DMs.

[–] Poison_Ivy@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That’s a big reason esp in regards to our lgbt and poc users who have faced racist and bigoted pms from sjw

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

yep, got a DM asking for nudes from someone. idk if chaser or not.

[–] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

I'm sorry you had to deal with that

The first dm I have ever gotten on this site was from one of their users. Granted that dm wasn't particularly noteworthy but it seems like they really do like dming people.

support to protect our minority and fem users

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Yeah, they suck. Just look at the modlog and you'll see so many from that instance who were banned for racism or transphobia, plus they just double down on claiming the yellowface Xi picture isn't racist.

Shitjustworks needs to go.

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I support defedding from them. They're full of reactionaries. The name should've been the first clue.

I don't support pulling the trigger before they do. I still believe in forcing obnoxious instances to defed from us rather than us defedding from them. That or getting their mods/admins to become completely unhinged reactionaries like what happened with Blahaj.

[–] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Goat is already an unhinged reactionary

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

They're very good at coming up with barely plausible excuses and hiding even when the mask sometimes slips. But, I know that their depth of reaction is far deeper than what they're publicly displaying even considering that sinophobic Xi picture or how they purposely stole an identity of a popular leftist(?) user from Mastodon. I peg them as a full-blown /pol/ FS-to-the-JQ style fascist that's very good at hiding their power level. They know they can't go around ranting about ZOG or be openly transphobic, so they quietly prod at pronouns and put some sinophobic crap instead in order to test boundaries.

But the mask always comes off eventually.

[–] ChestRockwell@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah I support this. Defed them
