Alright comrades that's it from me, be sure and do your democratic duty and for your 2023 Hexie winners and congrats in advance to the winners of this highly coveted and prestigious award!
Number 3 nomination: @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net : Their hard efforts put into the newsposting are a boon for all. Their contributions during discussions I always appreciate.
Okay for number 4 tho: @yogthos@lemmygrad.ml : Prolific newsposter and a very well informed individual. I see them while browsing both hexbear and lemmygrad
@Othello@hexbear.net : Just a lovely person all-around, congrats on the wedding!
My nomination for number 2: @buckykat@hexbear.net : Extremely based poster, banning this user would be revisionism tantamount to the Kruschevite counterrevolution
Second nomination for number 3: @kristina@hexbear.net : One of the most legendary posters on the site. Has a lot of experience organizing IRL. She is also very funny.
@Awoo@hexbear.net : I see her unique moving avatar everywhere, and its always a joy to talk with her. Tied for number 3 for news thread.
@Cromalin@hexbear.net : the largest poster on the traaaa subreddit, and has very good trans media reccs. Tied with Kristina for number 3 in trans com.
The banning of this user is extreme liberalism. Did nothing wrong. Would be my nomination for number 2 otherwise.
Here we have a 4-day old account listing off the obvious cool regulars and the hexbear mainstays, but then touting a banned user who bordered on wreckerism and who repeatedly violated site-wide rules, comm rules, picked unnecessary fights with comrades, used handfuls of alts to try to evade their ban, and did a bunch of other shit I won't list here. But their banning was "liberalism" and they "did nothing wrong." Very sus.
Blocking serves no purpose unless it's against people attached to their screenames. The sad person you're referencing and defending was a chronically-rules-violating and banned drama hound and it's good that their permanent site-wide ban finally stuck. If you are that person then, If you aren't, then you're stanning for someone that the mods of this site repeatedly found to be in violation of this site's code, they were a liberal shitbag in marxist sheep's clothing, and if you can't see that (fortunately the mods did) then that doesn't reflect well on you.
Anyway, yes, feel free to block this account too, and any of the other dozens I and everyone makes. You will still be reading the things I say on other accounts and not know it. It sucks, but it's simply how this works. Like, I would love it if the person you are or are cringingly stanning could no longer influence hexbear at all, but all they have to do is make yet another alt, just as they have before to evade their many justified bans.
Have a nice time
Yes, I am having a nice time. Are you though? Stanning banned users is far more "unseemly" than "starting an argument" which I wasn't doing.
And yes, I will reply. Like I said, you can block this account, but I'm laughing silently while you actually praise me on my other account! It's rather funny that you adore me on one account, but block me on another. That's something to consider when you talk about making the internet "better" by not interacting with "nuisances."
