statement from dotworld admin on blocking the Hexbearianists

I know you are lurking here lemmy.world admins I've decided to respond to your allegations https://www.hexbear.net/post/281459

Lol we tried to federate in a kind and respectful way, I hope you continue to enjoy your 600 comment struggle session.

Remember this:

When you were partying, I studied the post.

When you were having premarital sex, I mastered the comment.

While you wasted your days at the gym in pursuit of vanity, I cultivated struggle sessions.

And now that lemmy.world is on fire and the wreckers are at the gate do not have the audacity to come to me for help.

Hexbear will be federating soon, there should be pinned post explaining it

We will be featuring the discussion post for about a week and then deciding. With a tentative federation for next week or possibly the week after next, preceded by a post explaining federation and proper etiquette for interacting with other instances.

Using the image obscure for pictures of meat and dairy and including a CW is done out of respect for our vegan comrades, and in our opinion takes no actual effort to show respect.

First off, I would like to apologize to you and the group of folks harmed, I am 90% sure the person you are referring to is no longer associated with the mod team. The current mod team of hexbear is majority trans and if you feel comfortable I would appreciate the chance to hear your grievances and any suggestions for the community going forward. I realize I cannot undo any of the previous damage but would like to move forward if there is any way to do so, otherwise thank you for speaking up and I wish you the best. (if you don't want me doing this publically, I can delete this)

exploding-heads are infiltrating our discussions

"First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me"

  • Pastor Martin Niemöller

Watch for those instances that choose to defederate from the communist instances, for the most effective anti-fascists have been the communists.

10 million fascists were killed, wounded or captured during the Second War War on the eastern front.

Watch for free speech absolutists, centrists, and those who claim to be apolitical. Silence is violence. Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

Lemmy.world Hexbear Statement

It is because they didn't think about it, they have a single power admin, Antik, who enforces his ideology on the rest of the team who just nod along. Look at the time between @[email protected] post and this one.

He is even in this post arguing with @[email protected] and getting bodied, hilarious as fuck.

Real authoritarian ruler hours, makes a decree, tries to argue, gets demolished by facts and rhetoric, abuses admin power to remove posts and ban users.

The mods of [email protected] had to make a post in [email protected] here https://lemmy.ml/post/1582975 to get Antik to stop abusing his power in their community

Hexbear has split from the discord almost a year ago but i asked someone involved with the discord to look into it and they said you aren't banned. I don't want to publically state your discord name but if you wanna DM me it to be sure i can verify it was what my friend was searching for.

Just to be clear the one administrated by chloe and tanner right? The initial lifeboat discord?

As with the other commenter, the admins that were involved with the mod actions regarding Tammy are no longer a part of the admin team and I do wish to apologize to Tammy on behalf of Hexbear (that event was part of the reason hexbear now bans "I'm Leaving" posts).

I personally highly disagree with your phrasing of why she was unbanned as it was a mod action of a single team member, the reason was "toxicity see [redacted] post" and "fucky wucky" while the unban reasons were "Comrade was ND which wasn't initially recognized by the mod team at time of ban. [redacted] Post was meant to be sincere. We are putting in policies to prevent this in the future" both the first ban and the second were reversed by the majority of the mod team disagreeing with the lone mod, not "[Tammy was] in the wrong but it’s okay because she’s a r*tard".

Ultimately I do want to thank you for bringing this up, if any of those half who were banned have any interest in returning I would be more than happy to personally review the bans, but I understand if none wish to return. I extend apologies and regret for how the situation was handled to them as well as yourself and can only say that the team now is very different from the team at that time, and we have done critical analysis on the mod actions taken during that time to ensure we serve the community better.

In closing I would like to state that I also disagree with your comment below regarding Animal Liberation's place in any ML movement, but this is not the time or place for such a discussion.

For what it's worth the Hammer and Sickle is a fantastic west marches server and if you are interested in DnD 3.5 played in a very schedule friendly format with an inclusive group of comrades you should join.

Early stages of Ukrainian counteroffensive ‘not meeting expectations,’ Western officials tell CNN

https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/dissecting-west-point-think-tanks

"The capacity to detect and strike targets at ever-greater distances and with ever-growing precision increases the vulnerability of dense troop concentrations, and therefore limits the ability to conduct large-scale sequenced and concentrated operations. As such, in order to enhance survivability, current battlefield conditions are forcing military units to disperse into smaller formations, dig in, or both, unless these conditions are effectively countered. As a result, the battlefield tends to become more fragmented, offering more independent action to lower tactical formations as the depth of the front is expanding to a considerable extent."

"As a survey of decades of history illustrates, Russian military strategy over the past decades has correctly forecasted a number of implications of advancements in weapons, as well as sensor technologies, that are currently affecting the character of warfare in Ukraine."

"The operational level of war sits between tactics, which consists of organizing and employing fighting forces on or near the battlefield, and strategy, which involves aspects of long-term and high-level theatre operations, and the government's leadership. The Soviet Union was the first country to officially distinguish this third level of military thinking, when it was introduced as part of the deep operation military theory that its armed forces developed during the 1920s and 1930s and utilized during the Second World War."

"After the failure of the initial invasion, the subsequent period of the fighting in the Donbas was at first marked by Russian dominance in fires. Besides precision munitions, the employment of UAVs for target detection greatly enhanced the effectiveness of Russia’s large numbers of legacy artillery systems. Russian artillery batteries employing UAVs for target detection generally showed themselves capable of engaging Ukrainian positions within minutes after being detected. As a result, Ukrainian infantry companies were forced to disperse and often occupied front lines up to three kilometers wide. Consequently, battalions covered frontages that are traditionally the responsibility of brigades. Russian artillery superiority and sensor density even prevented Ukrainians from concentrating in units above company size, because anything larger would be detected prematurely and effectively targeted from a distance."

"Russian forces also rarely employ armor and infantry in concentrated assaults and in the defense occupy dispersed positions, while increasingly drawing on artillery to blunt Ukrainian attacks."

"However, current battlefield conditions are adding the related difficulty of achieving the concentration of forces necessary for establishing main efforts during offensive operations. This is reducing large-scale engagements and thereby necessitating a concentration and synchronization of effects, rather than a traditional physical massing of troops. In turn, this places an extra burden on command and control, especially when contested by electronic warfare. Only by disrupting the opponent’s kill chain can larger formations regain the ability to concentrate and engage in maneuver warfare. During the war in Ukraine, superiority in kill-chain effectiveness has become one of the prime objectives for both sides. In this war and any other characterized by the same dynamics, this superiority becomes an essential condition for victory."

With a doctrine advantage, western acknowledged electronic warfare, indirect fire, and air support superiority combined with an established, modernized supply line its JOEVER

Hexbear crashes whenever I try to teach someone a damn lesson so here:

Since you decided to bring this over here I'd like to add some context. Had you just communicated what you wanted and waited for a response from the mod team instead of descending into whatever this is I'm sure there would have been no problem.

Instead I've had to purge a picture of your disgusting, cumskin, penis off the server. As well as moderators having to remove multiple homophobic, transphobic, and ableist comments. Not to mention the hostile fixation on other users who likely have no idea what you are even talking about.

::: spoiler CW slurs, homophobia, transphobia, ableism
