    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.
