Sorry (๐Ÿ) we did this without making a post, but after receiving several complaints we defederated from hexbear.net yesterday.

Here's a few quick examples of poor conduct by hexbear users:

They warned their users to behave themselves, but that didn't work: https://hexbear.net/post/280770?scrollToComments=false

How am i exploiting others again? By giving them a place to live because they can't afford to buy a place of their own? Someone is going to own the property- no one is going to build for free. At least with me they get a stable rent and a price a couple hundred below market. How the fuck do you make that balance out to "evil"

It's exploitation, because housing is a right that shouldn't be monetized.

But you do have cause to see this as fine. Exactly why hurting you is extremist, authoritarian nonsense in my book.

And don't worry too much. The whole idea of revolution is that no one should be unhoused. You'll have a place to go.

Just don't join a death squad.

great. so how are you planning on making that happen? by taking my property and giving it to someone? i mean i literally built my first house. so i can't keep it just because i'm not living in it? it should remain empty? what exactly is your plan man? Maybe YOU should not join a death squad?

If you don't live there, then -

Yes, housing should be held in common. Don't worry though. The whole idea of no one should be homeless or starve applies to you, too.

And if you live there, built it, should be yours. But rent is parasitic and has to go as a concept.
