Hey all. I’d like to open an official discussion regarding the upturning of the prior Hexbear party line on an :israel-cool: emote proper with the unambiguous Zionist flag.
I want to preface this by saying this is not in a ‘ceding the issue’ way. Over the past year I’ve been trying to engage in self-crit w/rt the chauvinism I’ve internalized growing up in a Liberal Zionist household, and my personal viewpoint on it did a 180 some months back, so I want to reopen this discussion proper in my personal capacities as Self-Appointed Emote Czar.
The reason it’s taken long enough beyond that is prior to July, I was essentially half-engaged with the site in order to finish out my degree. After that, it’s been mostly inertia of confirming with the admins and other /c/Judaism mods, as well as having to be rigorous about my job search personally giving me little free time to coordinate this.
I do not want to center myself in this conversation more than I inadvertently already have, so I will leave my own opinion on the issue as a comment rather than explaining further here.
The consensus we’ve roughly come to is to open up the discussion in an official manner for a day or so. After that, I’ll weigh the discussion in an entirely vibes-based manner (sorry Dean Norris enjoyers) and we’ll alter Hexbear party line on it accordingly.
even uninteresting crackers like me get discouraged by this bullshit. love to hold my tongue because of powertripping mods.

Ironic that Nakoichi is still a mod after posting that a certain someone should be six feet under yet pointing that out results in a ban
Hope I don’t get banned as a “Z poster alt” even though I’ve been here 5 years. Really not sure what the criteria is for determining that.
Multiple zionists that haven’t been banned yet, but sure go ahead and ban an alt.
Yea it’s honestly pretty fucked up that we have a mod that gets away with saying zposter would be better off dead (no idea how else to interpret “touch grass no wait touch dirt six feet under”) and the people calling Nakoichi out about it are the ones being banned
Also the mods have time to ban their critics but not the rabid Zionists?
It’s not even “ban evasion” or a “personal vendetta”. It’s my alt, a 5 year old user, who has a separate account on their phone since they can’t remember a password. Mods literally jumping at shadows and banning random users for their own personal ghosts.
The “meta posting” shit is why we can’t resolve issues, only cover them up and then ban people for “relitigating”.
Ok in all fairness (and I already got burned calling someone a Z alt when they weren’t) I’m pretty sure…
guess this is as fine a place as any to say the ban on “meta” posting has always been ridiculous and ill-considered (if we’re being charitable). i’d also wager it’s a huge part of the reason why this community is never able to move past anything.
