Hexbear is only safe for trans folks whose politics don't clash too strongly with theirs. They have a whole community dedicated to dunking on folk who disagree with them, and that includes trans folk. If you step too far from what they deem acceptable, harassing and dogpiling is seen as an acceptable response.
Many of the trans folks on blahaj zone, despite being left aligned, would be deemed to be "libs" by Hexbear, and actively harassed until they left.
If you think that it's ok that the majority of folk on this instance (well, the majority of trans folk anywhere to be honest) are valid targets for harassment, I don't know what to tell you other than we have very different ideas of what trans safety looks like.
I've seen you repeat this three times now and I don't understand why you feel the need to exaggerate so heavily.
You can look the posts up, they're in the first ten pages of the top year posts (i.e. since hexbear started federation with other instances). Or don't, and you can continue scaring people away from from a place that aggressively moderates to keep its trans users away from bad actors at the first sign of trouble.
To the best of my knowledge, the dunk tank is still there, which is a community centered around harassment of "libs". Unless the admins have stepped in to remove that community, then my comment still stands.
Your original comment does not stand but okay.
I just hope next time a DRONERIGHTS or midtraveler comes along you'll act quicker
Can hope but it's doubtful at this point
