I was there on reddit and at the beginning of hexbear. I thought about coming back. But, right now hexbear is tolerating a culture that equates good faith disagreement with a personal attack, that makes shallow judgments, that's far too ready to attack without wisdom. Good faith discussion with a hexbear user appears to be the exception, not the rule it once was.

Over the decades I've followed the vanguard from movement to movement as each scales and then fails. I'd perceive this as the beginning of the end. But, none of the other movements began with such sound ideology. Recovery may be possible here where it was not elsewhere.

I may once again join you. But, not today. I don't have the resources to invest what I believe is the bare minimum required to serve the community.

Sib what the fuck are you talking about, this is a shit posting website. You are not organising here.

I agree that right now hexbear is mostly full of shit and that it's unlikely anyone is currently organizing there. For example, I just said that above but you didn't bother to read and think before speaking.

I'm glad we've now this common context. But, I fear what qualifies as a "discussion" to someone who starts off so poorly.
