The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of "left solidarity"

No that's just their admin's alt. A quick glance at their comment history confirms it. It was made before hexbear federated

I thought I had seen that admin name before on Hexbear. I wasn't able to bring up the Hexbear account with the search bar, so I didn't want to assume. edit: But if it's just an alt then I'm not sure where I saw it now.
