    Man i had no idea there was gonna be a vote like this today. I was just talking bout the 'bear over there too. Pardon me for being out of the loop but what happened? Mods from hexbear kicked up a fuss? From db0? Can someone point me to the drama?

      Mods from db0 got pissy because someone posted about their post being removed for being “tankie adjacent” whatever the fuck that means. Then db0 himself came in and threw a lil tantrum about it and got himself banned from the dunk tank. Then db0 decided to start harassing a mod in dm’s and got himself site banned, which raised the question: Should we remain federated with an instance whose admins are banned. The consensus was to remain federated but keep their admins banned because that is the funniest option.

      @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com Feel free to correct me here if I got any of this wrong.

      Oh wait you can’t you’re fuckin banned loser lmao.

        It seems a bit weird because due to the fact that they own the place they could easily just spin up more admin accounts to get around the ban, like this isn’t a real limitation for someone who owns the instance and can either create new accounts on demand or manually change their username in the Database to appear as someone else.
        That’s why most of the time defederation is used in cases like this.

      People forgot they subscribe to the most hated ideology in the west, and got upset when others predictably react as if raised in an environment of anticommunist propaganda.

        This sounds like you are defending the dipshits on the dbzer0 moderation team.

        Nobody gives a fuck if our ideology is hated in the west. That does not preclude us from dunking on them.

        Losers can stay mad and enjoy their ban.
