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 dean-smile to vote for federation and dean-frown to vote for defederation.

    Thanks for sharing these links. I’m another off-instance lurker who has learned a lot by browsing Hexbear posts. The comments here reinforce that y’all are being strategic with your federation choices, which is cool to see.

      I would be less strategic and more open but I am very thick skinned and willing to scrap endlessly with neoliberals if it radicalises just a few people. Unfortunately not everyone here has the same constitution.

      I am quite glad that we do in fact reach some people. If you have any questions about communism, capitalism or anything at all my door is always open to people genuinely looking to learn.
