dbzer0 defederation vote (results are in, we will remain federated but the offending admins will remain banned)
(hexbear.net)
db0 and Unruffled have both been banned for reactionary behavior and, in the case of the former, DM harassment.
Due to these irreconcilable differences we thought it only right to allow the community to weigh in on defederating immediately.
According to this person "tankie" is anyone that criticizes the privilege of white westerners in the imperial core who have been privileged and comfortable their entire lives off of the backs of colonized people.

As always, use 
to vote for federation and 
to vote for defederation.
it's also worth noting that the main blahaj admin has said she'd consider refederating to reverse the fracturing of trans communities once there's proper user level instance blocking (of users as well as comms unlike what lemmy has rn) and if hexbear blocked the 196 comm so that the admins wouldnt have to moderate 196 users complaining about seeing real communists who dont just hold identical foreign policy positions to
and they wouldnt have to deal with hexbear users going onto 196 and getting into slapfights over there
ok, i was just going off something i saw ada mention off hand a while ago in one of the threads with users on blahaj being pissy about hexbear again
