I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don’t actually think everyone there is insane. I don’t care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point

Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It’s not going to scare me to take this down

    That wouldn’t be thematically consistent with their years of telling others what they’d like to hear for their entertainment.

    What?

    There was never formal consensus in that leadership repeatedly denied the vote, favoring a granular, instance-by-instance approach.

    Here’s the vote that approved the granular instance-by-instance approach

    An organized, grassroots movement that employed questionable means to force the wisest decision upon leadership and everyone else.

    Are you describing the consensus building and struggle sessions as “forcing the wisest decision on everyone”?

      And then what happened? It seems like you were present for awhile but perhaps not in the trenches, through the OpSec, and to the end.

      What?

      Indeed.

      Q: Why did hexbear brigade the fediverse?

          You’ve forgotten to mention the minority that did not agree and how strongly they believed they were correct. You’ve seemingly not considered that democracy’s best case scenario is mediocrity.

          We will not be led by or stagnate upon popularity among the lumpen. Democracy be damned when faced with such a threat.
