that shit just shouldn't be here

Yes, I agree. Maybe my wording suggested otherwise. But my point was that it wouldn't be the uploader that's punished but the instance itself. That's kinda weird.

It's honestly sad that some well-intentioned laws can be used to attack online platforms.

I didn't know what that was until I just looked it up, so, no. I named myself after the Python function random.randint.

the three main problematic authoritarian instances

wait, there are three?

what kind of mentality is this? "I'm being hostile to you because you deserve it."

Thanks. I am aware of the George Floyd incident and the numerous others African-Americans killed for no good reason.

Yes, in hindsight, calling that genocide with no real evidence of direct killing is a bit too much. But the report I linked to mentioned coercive birth control and internment or imprisonment for violations of the family planning policy (page 35). While that indeed is not genocide per se, it does seem to bring what China is doing one step toward that direction.

I was going to agree with you until I notice you used the word "fee-fees."

I was trying to use different terms for the same thing so that my post does not become boring to read.

Thank you. You are among one of the nobler Hexbears. I will take your advice.

I admit, I did say that. But that was after being insulted by numerous Hexbear users. Also, I did not use insults towards them (unlike them who used insults liberally).

Thank you, dear admin, for your timely and thoughtful reply.

This post seems even more likely to devolve into the same kind of attacks.

Yes, I completely agree. In fact, it seems like there are already signs of that happening.

OP: Please always report comments that harass you

Thank you. I will.

I know that walking away from an argument is extremely difficult, but in the threads you linked, there is an irreconcilable disagreement about which sources can be trusted

Irreconcilable indeed. I have learned my lesson from several fruitless arguments with them.

While I know there isn’t a consensus on this topic among lemm.ee users, I personally don’t think defederation is the correct approach

I see. I respect your decision.

the way some people casually throw around the insult “nazi” is completely ridiculous (and I don’t just mean hexbear users here)

Yeah! They are the ones diminishing the word nazi.

my edit of only striking it out instead of actually removing it was the biggest respect I can give to Hexbears users like you. but to be honest, when the members of a certain group is personally attacking you, is it possible to leave comments without the intention of making them look bad? In any case, I did not use any sort of insult toward any Hexbear users.

Thanks. I just blocked them, along with the person who told me to post dick pics (as screenshotted in my edit to the post)

Thanks. I will stop. In fact I planned for my post to be the final few hours I dedicate to those people.

Yes, that's what I am talking about. The Hexbear Federation Megathread posted by our admin about 2 weeks ago. I have never posted on any megathread on Hexbear.

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually have been considering blocking that user.

Winnie the pooh is not a racist term. It is merely an insult to Xi. Perhaps, by extension, also to you for some reason.

you commented on cth.

Well yeah I guess I should have expected this coming lol. But to be fair I don't think me commenting on cth justifies their personal insults.

Also, another half of personal insults happened on !worldnews@lemmy.ml.

Thanks for the reply. Actually I got in some arguments about politics but then Hexbears degraded it into a personal argument. This has happened several times.

Edit: I just read your edit. Will definitely stay away from cth. Thanks.

The truth, like it or not, is that PRC has never, ever seized control of Taiwan. Hopefully it never does. This is not pedantry.
