I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of 'hitlerites'

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

Yes, you should definitely block Hexbear. They're a toxic, angry group of people, who have no intention of ever engaging in good faith.

this user was banned from hexbear for saying

cw: genocide denial"When Israel kills civilians, it's collateral damage from them going after Hamas. Hamas, however, launched an operation where the entire point was to kill civilians. The two are not comparable."

And? They murdered around a thousand people in a military attack.

There are no good guys in that conflict.

not surprising you're doubling down on your support of israels genocide, but hopefully others won't be fooled by the same propaganda as you.

The Supernova deaths

The rave is often reported to be the largest single site of deaths that took place on 7 October. The UN report said that 364 out of the 3,000 total ravers were “killed either at the site, near Kibbutz Re’im or in adjacent locations.”

But a detailed breakdown of the deaths recently published by The Times of Israel (based on an Israeli TV channel’s investigation) shows that more than 60 percent of this figure actually died outside of the designated grounds of the rave.

Is that saying 364 out of 3,000 were killed, or 3,000 total were killed? It's not a very well written article.

this is very easy to parse. go back to high school.

Wow, not only are you transphobic you're also ablist too. Infantilizing people for not understanding something right away. Cool, nothing problematic with that at all.

You're a real ray of sunshine today, aren't you?

[–] Edie@lemmy.ml -1 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Equal condemnation for unequal sin minimizes the greater and exaggerates the lesser. That ceases to be an answer and becomes a cover for genocidal fascists against a national liberation movement.

Your username reads like someone making fun of trans people. My guess is you're transphobic and actively discouraged people from supporting Biden because you wanted Trump to win.

Horrendous take. Fuck off.
