We really should have an official rule of assuming good faith from fellow Hexbears.
I’m not a Hexbear so I suppose it doesn’t matter to me too much, but I strongly disagree with this. Anyone can make a Hexbear account, and a rule like this seems like it would be very easy for trolls to take advantage of. Plus, frankly, I really don’t think that just because some well-meaning progressive or whoever stumbles into making an account on Hexbear means they should be given even temporary immunity to being dunked on. Some (let’s be honest, many) people’s opinions deserve scorn. You could argue that the mods have the flexibility to enforce the rule as they see fit, but to me, that just seems to make it difficult to know if what you say is in line with the rule.
In regards to the rest of your post, I think I’m mostly in agreement with the_post_of_tom_joad. Still, I think this post is a good reminder to be more mindful of how we interact with people on here and how their comments might affect those they respond to, and I’ve seen you call out Hexbears for being a little too quick to pull the trigger on people before and upvoted you. I know I sometimes respond angrily to people here and later feel I went about it wrongly when I’ve calmed down.
For sure, sorry if my comment was focusing too much on something minor you said but I felt it was probably worth saying something
