When seeking out ever more users to ban becomes an end in itself, an objective of transparency no longer carries any value.
I hope to find my own peace using an instance not federated with Hexbear.
The repeated revisions to the explanation would not have been necessary, except for a complete lack of transparency and fairness in the actions.
I find it deranged that, based on content submitted to communities on other instances, Hexbear targets users not even using the site.
Further, my best understanding is that comments in such communities are being removed on Hexbear, such that they remain on the original and other instances, only appearing as removed from Hexbear. I never knew such a capability was available to administrators of Lemmy instances, and its use strikes me as among the most misguided expressions of censorship.
It seems that the kind of discussion OP wants would be well aligned with the spirit of !actualsocialism101@lemmy.dbzer0.com. However, the community unfortunately seems to be inactive.
I naturally agree with the basic premise that the issue is oil not drugs.
I question that deficit spending is either threatening or threatened within the US. Further, I find it a tenuous case that US companies are not eager to restore the control of Venezuelan oil that they maintained preceding nationalization, such eagerness being more than sufficient to account for the motives of US action against Venezuela.
I think any realistic outcome would entail an acceptance that the settler population will remain living on stolen land. The objective should be full parity among all current occupants, which is inclusive of the "right of return", Palestinians moving freely throughout the entire territory.
Is advocacy for a "two-state solution" necessarily in itself Zionism?
I agree with the essence of your objections, but being misguided or misinformed is not in itself trolling, especially if the opportunity remains open for discussion and education.
The reactionary entrenchment in the government, and the oppression of the native population, are directly consequences, and as such, inseparable from, Israel's nature as a settler-colonial ethnostate.
Israel was established by ethnic cleansing called the Nakba, on a premise of Jewish supremacy. Palestinians were displaced, murdered, and encaged. There is no possibility of such an entity developing along a path that is liberatory or egalitarian.
There is no possibility, either, of an entity that starves children also authentically originating from a premise of self defense.
The government and revolution are both immensely popular among Cubans.
The government monitors and represses subversive activities, but so does every other state.
Union participation is nearly universal, and laws are passed by a national popular assembly.
The Family Code was recently revised, through a process of nationwide contribution and referendum, which serves as an example of functional democracy.
All was achieved despite constant colonial bombardment by the US. Cubans correctly identify as their enemy the US government, not the government of Cuba.
Hexbear users chose to participate in a discussion, community, and site in which such comments are not unwelcome. The comments observed applicable rules. The actions undertaken are quite markedly unreasonable.
