Welcome again, everyone! Make yourself at home. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is our weekly discussion thread!
We have a Matrix homeserver, where I am your overlord friendly server admin :), at genzedong.xyz. See this thread for information about our Matrix space.
Official ban reasoning says it was because of comments he made in the matrix server. His recent post appeared to spark a discussion about the CPUSA which didn't go down very well, I assume it had something to do with that.
Why the fuck would an alt‐right website of all things host a black researcher’s report on Fascist Italy’s mustard gas attacks on Ethiopians? That’s utterly mindless. It pissed me off because I wanted to tell people about a serious subject and the first comment that I got was an ‘I don’t like this source’ comment (and a poorly substantiated one at that). I thought, ‘Fuck, I guess that I can’t link to this one anymore.’
That said, I think that a permanent ban was too long for him.

Judging by the modlog, the ban switched from temporary to permanent after he said some stuff in the lemmygrad matrix room. I have no idea what it was he said, though.
He was throwing a fit and saying he would get hexbear to not federate with us “because he’s on the mod team”
why would we even care that much? Like it will be nice to have more people to engage with our comms but we do just fine without hexbear federated
he’s not an admin over there like he was implying, he’s only been on hexbear for a month and they let him mod a couple of comms, he has 0 sway on their admin team
