Given some of the recent history, sometimes seems like we have a transphobic mod/admin problem, not a transphobic user problem.

I think the real site culture change we need is to stop the admins cosying up with libs.
If any of the instances were upset at things in the dunk tank, it's probably because they are NOT our allies. Why appease them?
Hexbear is only federated with communities we're compatible with. We're in a cosy spot. Users are generally comfy, kind, happy. Hexbear is a nice bubble of sanity and occasionally an excellent effort post grows out of that.
This is not the vanguard party. This is a commie bar / working mans club. We don't need more serious leftists spaces. We need more cosy leftist spaces.
Agreeing with the idea to call it something like the_hog_pen.
Either way, I understand the admins opinion, but I think they should pay attention to community opinions. The space is valued even if not by everyone.
Emulating a conscience might just be too much to ask from them.
Liberals will always let you down.
At least 2 is a safe bet.
Do tell, sounds interesting
Entire chatgtp data centers dedicated to clapping like seals and propping up techbros egos.
Fascism now - Kamala

Thanks for the babies-first-civics lesson.
Please leave your democratic seal of approval for more dead children in your local ballot box, rather than regurgitating it especially for us.
Brilliant idea. I'm sure he'll be the first to sign up to work for the council or the police for free.
Hexbear is fine.
We're comfy.
Changing the name of the comms is an easy decision, but trying to amputate comms that perform a useful function for bonding and cathartic relief is a step too far. We need to face the fact that hexbear as a community isn't especially erudite compared to other leftist spaces - our main aspect is providing comfort and awareness in the face of what is currently a world that stands against us. That's an important function. We shouldn't be damaging ourselves in attempts to appease lemmylibs.
