Calling people cringe isn't avoiding confrontation. It's just a much more reasonable stance to take than "meme invented by Chinese netizens is actually racist as soon as white people touch it and is also a nefarious plot by neo-nazis to normalize racism because it's making a non-white person look ridiculous".
I'm not saying avoid confrontation to ease tension, I'm saying that the easier dunk is "you are posting a picture of a world leader photoshopped to look like a children's book character and expecting it to bring about regime change".
It would, if that particular criticism had a leg to stand on.
No idea why admins locked whatever thread you're talking about, but it's probably because it was nothing but Hexbears screaming "debate me".
Buddy, we're not stomping out anything. Our actions on Hexbear and Lemmy have no effect on anything. Just like the people posting "Xinnie the Pooh Tianmen Square vuvuzela iPhone".
The whole thread is a "debate me". The debate demand is literally the title.
And no, I just recognize that slinging shit on a niche internet forum isn't action in any sense of the word.
