Sorry (🍁) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several complaints we defederated from hexbear.net yesterday.

Here's a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users:

They warned their users to behave themselves, but that didn't work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

"Capitalists" aren't some all powerful boogeyman stealing your essence in the night, especially when you broaden the category from "actually evil corporations" to pensioners or families renting out their starter home, or some guy renting out a room. I don't feel it's right to slaughter the nice old woman who rented us the punk house back in the day simply for trying to afford her meds in retirement, no. Sorry, but we're just not gonna get me to agree that killing innocent people is "good."

No, they're all powerful boogeymen in control of our entire society who have us sell our bodies just to live. They do all this in daylight where it can be seen, and are such clever con artists are to make fools think it's good and normal to do so.

we’re just not gonna get me to agree that killing innocent people is β€œgood.”

I never claimed that, nor do I wish to kill the guilty, but if wishing execution (a penalty under law) of an oppressive class is not "killing innocent people".

But go off

entire society who have us sell our bodies just to live.

And when this didn't happen? Because on USSR you could go to jail if you didn't work.

On every society, if you want to enjoy things made by it and not do your part, you are just a parasite, just like the capitalists you are against. So maybe you are a capitalist wanna be

Who said anything about the USSR being good?

Funny that you go to the old "you're just jealous and that's why you hate capitalism so much" pov though. I have no interest in your bad faith arguments, so I'm not gonna engage further than this. Google what arguments people use against that or something if that'll make you feel better.

I'm not talking about jealousy, I'm talking about people who just want to parasite other peoples work while they(you) think work is something made only by bourgeoisie

Yes yes my landlady was part of some secret cabal that runs the world. I've heard this one before, next you're gonna tell me it's because she's in league with the reptile jews or some nonsense, it's all the same.
