The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of "left solidarity"

You think I give a fuck about federation? Do you know what is going to happen if an instance as active as hexbear gets defederated for being falsely accused of being fascists?

I am trying to help you fuckers because I cannot do anything about what will probably happen if it gets defederated. I can't stop people from making alts here to ridicule assholes like you. Nor would I.

Haha your cute, if I didn't want to argue I would have just reported and moved on. But go off king, I've never been afraid of dipshits trying to ridicule, they've tried all their lives. You act like the votes mean literally anything, but you're getting worked up about being called tankies. That's honestly way too fucking telling. And honestly, if tankies is a slur, the way you use lib absolutely is as well. You use lib to describe people you don't agree with, why can't I use tankie? Hell you called me a crypto fascist, you just came here to insult, what the fuck do I care about what you think?

None of this matters. Stop acting like it's a big quest
