Sorry (🍁) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several complaints we defederated from hexbear.net yesterday.

Here’s a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users:

They warned their users to behave themselves, but that didn’t work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

        Yes. I’ll be there in the middle of September.

        A few hundred homeless people do not a revolution make (or a few thousand, or a few tens of thousands.) You can fantasize about it by the reality is that you end up dead or in prison if you try.

        We need change, that is an absolute truth, but we are a long, long way from revolution.

          Ok well just wait till you see how aggressive and violent homeless people have become haha. It’s not friendly begging anymore and I don’t blame them

          Agree that it’s fantasy though. Canada is spineless
