Best thing to ever happen to us. It feels so nice being able to say that billionaires should get the gui-better without getting banned immediately for being "uncivil".

Honestly yeah, we were on borrowed time being on reddit anyway, chapo was only tolerated for so long. Not to mention the mods of the old sub were weird nerds that would ban people for disagreeing with them or downvoting their dumb bits. Hexbear is waaay healthier and actually feels like a community.

I'm the one that invented the main rule. I'm like one of the most arbitrary people around that fell upwards the ladder of nerddom

My greatest weakness! Someone putting so much effort into their post that it actually makes me feel bad to remove it for a bit

ban people for disagreeing with them

This phrase is my personal pet peeve. The mods then weren't great but they didn't ban people because they hated disagreements as a concept, they wouldn't ban you if you disagreed with them on your favorite pizza toppings or about the best Star Wars trilogy.

They banned people for the substance of their opinions just like the hexbear mods do. Hexbear mods will ban zionists not because they can't stand anyone who disagrees with them, but because they can't stand zionists. Let's not pretend like hexbear welcomes opinions from the entire political spectrum. We just differ from the r/cth mods in what exact opinions we deem banworthy.

Edit: To be clear I do not think this is a bad thing. I support the mods banning people with terrible opinions.
