I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of ‘hitlerites’

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

      I’d probably be more selective about blocking users from lemmy.ml, but I’m a bit biased in the question given the server I chose when I joined Lemmy

      my first account was on lemmy.ml because it was one of the top options on one of the apps I used. it stopped working with jerboa which why I switched to lemmy.world…

          You would just create a new account. Take it as a chance to prevent too much personal info from piling up under one pseudonym.

      Who is UnversalMonk? Never seen him. Probably because div0 (my instance admin) blocked him for some petty bullshit like calling him an egocentric power tripping keyboard warrior

        This post goes into detail about some of his shenanigans. Short version is he’s a ban-evading right-wing troll who pretended to be a big third party supporter up until the election, and now just regurgitates right wing trash all day.

        fun fact: you can want everyone’s needs to be met while also being allowed to criticize China, Russia, and while not acting like an insufferable twat. Wild, I know.

          It’s true. And all those things happen on Hexbear all the time. So I don’t know what you’re talking about.
