We need Floris’s thoughts on Al Gul
East asians are able to shoot a 15 ft cone of elemental damage once per day that does 5d8 damage, the damage type depends on their exact ancestry, Chinese Fire, Koreans Frost, Japanese Lightning, Filipinos Acid
Aight, fire makes sense because they are the inventors of gunpowder. Korea is far north so frost. Japanese have legends about Raijin so lightning tracks, but I can’t pin a reason for the Filipinos being acid.
Someone help me out this is very serious science lol
My Thai friend says fish sauce can be the weapon for Thailand, and I agree because the smell from a 15ft cone of that shit would be deadly. Very tasty, tho
but I can’t pin a reason for the Filipinos being acid.
You’ve obviously never partied with Filipino people before, they party really damn hard
And Indonesians have a swim speed, and Mexicans have fire resistance, and the Welsh get +1 animal handling.
This is a perfect example of why we should be allowed to use words like “stupid” and “dumb”
I mean, come on
Have you considered just calling them racist instead?
The decision to avoid such terms was made after getting input from our neurodivergent community: In order to make this a more welcoming environment for them.
I hope you’re not suggesting that we ignore the advice of marginalized groups in our community.
The problem is that this person is proud to be a racist. He literally calls these tweets ‘expert racism’
You mean its not a joke? Comparing rice farming to chip manufacture on the first one made me think it must be satire
No, look at his profile, he’s a full on calipers kind of guy.
I hope you’re not suggesting that we ignore the advice of marginalized groups in our community.
This comes off nearly as bait. No one is saying that we must silence the voices of marginalized groups in this community, they are simply acting like there is space between “ignore” and “obey” where we can actually discuss what is correct or incorrect in a way that people can actually engage with rather than receive dictates.
I’m absolutely revolted by the idea of needing to say “I’m ND btw” to not immediately get written off as a neurotypical chauvinist, but I guess I need to because only people in that category get to say something about this topic by your logic. I’m ND btw.
We should consider their feelings, and it may well be that that’s the deciding factor (I expect that to be the case), but this idea that someone suggests that we take a different approach and, instead of being properly refuted or referred to a refutation is simply told “You don’t want to be a bad ally, do you? You aren’t trying to oppress people, are you?” is gross and thought-terminating.
Something as simple as “There isn’t much intrinsic value in the rhetorical affectation that you’re attached to, but there is value in ‘making this a more welcoming environment for’ ND comrades” actually engages with them while still substantively being what I assume you were trying to say (which is why I phrased it quoting you).
And it is actually my opinion that, if it is a big deal to them, then whatever, it doesn’t matter so go ahead I guess. Just put it in the language filter with the hundred thousand other words that mean “unintelligent” along with, I must assume, the word “unintelligent,” so that people don’t need to keep the list in their head of what common words aren’t allowed here. I feel like there’s probably a healthier way to deal with this, but I don’t have the motivation to try to work through that with people, so I have no grounds for asserting that it must be the route the board takes. So yeah, I guess I have contempt for the decision, but I don’t disagree on a practical level, if that makes sense.
Complete aside: I fucking love how people have sniped at me endlessly for being a “debate bro” or whatever phrasing they prefer to say “autist who is annoying me” but here is the place where we have Manichean language policy. Maybe that was updated, since I do see the term less now, but I likewise don’t have the motivation to follow what the admins adjudicate.
Is “debate bro” used in relation to neurodivrrgent/autistic tendencies? I always thought it related to using tactics for debates in a situation which is absolutely not a debate. Like on this forum, where the goal isn’t to win an argument but to completely understand the other side and come to a correct conclusion. I’ve been called it a couple of times, but I’m neurotypical so I wouldn’t have made the connection near as well
“Debate bro” has legitimate uses because “debate bros” as a subculture do exist and deserve ridicule, but it means things like using “gotchas” and other underhanded rhetoric or arguing purely to posture, rather than just vocally disagreeing or being – in their view – overly concerned with minor details without necessarily deriving false implications from them (which would be a “gotcha”). Overwhelmingly, I get the latter and over time it started to be clear to me for reasons that I find kind of difficult to articulate that this sort of talk is, aside from being lazy, oriented around the caricaturing and disparaging of ASD traits that are a large part of our image of what a “nerd” is, which this site has a long history of enjoying the abuse of, as seen by the sordid emotes that were removed over time. I totally believe there need to be rules for communication, but part of the issue with the site’s approach to PC reforms is that it doesn’t actually change anyone’s attitudes or sentiments, it just changes how they communicate them. Something something “euphemism treadmill.”
No, I’m not advocating for banning the term “debate bro” or “nerd,” I’m just tired of people being lazy, ignorant assholes. I think a lot of it comes from the people on this site wanting to get a chance to strike at “cishet white males” but being such fucking cowards that they just punch down at ND people of that description who were often already shat on and physically abused for their whole fucking lives, not that I’m bitter about it or anything. That’s just the vibe I get though, since I’m not a mind reader. It could all be in my head, though I’ve seen two or three other autistic comrades say the same thing.
Like on this forum, where the goal isn’t to win an argument but to completely understand the other side and come to a correct conclusion.
I’d love to know where “this forum” is, because I’ve been here since the subreddit and don’t recognize that description.
To be clear on that last part, I’m saying that is the ideal usage of hexbear, and so I’ve seen “debate bro” trotted out in a way that seemed to be calling out a deviation from that. Hexbear does not always meet that ideal lol. I agree with that for sure!
And to the rest, interesting! I think I missed some history because I’m not sure which emojis this is about. I recognize definitely the points you are making! It’s definitely a difficult problem to solve with a process or rule, because there are so many ways to meander around those sorts of issues and cause the same problems without Walking over any specific line. I also have no better recommendations though.
Regarding emojis, we don’t have them anymore, but they were of scrawny, chinless, bespectacled white boys who were taken as sort of the avatar of channers. They were later removed for the obvious bodyshaming issue, but the broader portrait has never been challenged.
I think the problem is immensely easy to solve, because the problem is 100% people being lazy assholes. You don’t need to argue with people, but when someone voices disagreement, the appropriate thing to do is not write them off with insipid name-calling, but to either disengage, discuss the issue, or have an actual meta-conversation that isn’t predicated on immediately treating them like bad actors because you feel uncomfortable with someone saying that you’re wrong.
Sure, I agree mostly, but do we require the same for responding to, to take the extreme case, fascists then? The difficulty is in enforcing what you’re proposing, unfortunately, because I think we all shouldn’t be expected to respond seriously every time a Lemmy fascist shows up, but should respond seriously to comrades instead of dismissals and name-calling. But that line is super difficult to implement in practical terms. We could just always require full engagement, but unfortunately fascists know how to use such principles to waste our time and recruit others with sealioning and shit. How should we deal with that?
Yeah, Hexbear is frustrating about this stuff sometimes. Overall I don’t find this place to be too alike leftist twitter spaces, but alongside policing there’s that same weird smug dunk culture. It really doesn’t happen too much but I’ve seen it a couple times in the last few days and it’s just way too online.
I agree, must I declare my neuro or physical ability, sexuality, and more, every time I post? Only when it’s controversial? Do I need to prove it?
It’s frustrating because, if I want to talk about my own experience with being ND, then yeah me mentioning it is relevant (and then these fuckers don’t do anything about it (except Carcosa, who is cool)), but neurotypical people should be allowed to talk about it too because ultimately what we are concerned with is a truth that is broader than my own personal experience. If we really do live in the same reality, then I have special access to my own experiences, but that’s it. If something is true (and not just a matter of individual sensation), people should be able to engage with it and understand it rather than just be told what is true and accept it.
But instead we have this radlib-style idpol standpoint epistemology where we just assume things are incomprehensible to people and there’s nothing they can do but listen and follow the conclusions they are instructed on, because the premises and inferences that lead to those conclusions just can’t be accessed by them.
I don’t want to need to “justify” myself by fucking tokenizing myself into being “person who is ND” so that these radlibs say that I’m allowed to speak; it’s revolting. Why can’t we just talk about things and try to come to common understanding? Why do I need to check some box for these people? Aren’t we all humans who can – to an incomplete but still substantial extent – understand each other?

I’d like to point out once again that there’s a certain kind of term that has its origins in an old ableist word and 4chan culture that’s used constantly on Hexbear.
Autist?
No, because that’d actually get deleted for ableism. I’m talking about the terms ending in -oid.
What’s the older ableist origin word it’s derived from? Asking in good faith since my English vocabulary is not great.
M*****loid. I’m sure someone will ”well ackhually” me on this, but to me those terms don’t pass the vibe check.
Never seen someone use m****loid in my entire 5 years on Hexbear
I never said people used that word on here, I said people use terms derived from it such as westo*d.
I seeeee
Yes, although I don’t think that comes from m----loid as a disability term. I think it comes from the step before that - the angle of scientific racism, when different races were referred to as ‘oids’ - N-groid, and of course m----loid for Asian features, which then racistly became a term for people with down syndrome and similarly facial featured intellectual disabilities.
But, as for westoid I think that’s more linked to the general race science side of things, as in the modern internet context the obsolete racial grouping ‘oid’ was used by white supremacists on 4chan and such, which then led to femoid (derogatory incel term for a woman), and also led to westoid - westoid as a deliberate inversion to show the level of disdain and sort of for highlighting race science hypocrisy by using it on westerners and Americans.
But yes, when you look at the roots I do see how westoid is a contentious term. Within the context I think given that it’s probably used and invented by white online leftists it’s probably not a good one to keep. But then again, it does illustrate that particular point well (the Inversion of racial science).
edit: accidental italics/bold due to using the star for censoring
I personally don’t like the whole logic of ”I’m going to start using the bad word because the other people used it”, that gives me the same vibes as people who started using words like conservat**d and calling people cucks when that word was fully co-opted by chuds and has questionable racial implications.
I feel the same way about people using ”soy” as a derogatory term when it originates from a fascist conspiracy theory and has misogynistic connotations.

Glad you asked, it’s right here:
We would like to encourage users to report pejorative use of terms like “schizo, bi-polar, narcissist, psychotic, etc.” for moderators to remove.
“Stupid and dumb” would fall under “etc.”
Would they?
I get bipolar, psychotic, and schizo, although I do also believe within far right circles like QAnon and such that there are people who are having legitimate psychotic and schizophrenic thoughts (which is very sad). I know Hasan uses psychotic as a bit of an umbrella term which I’ve found annoying in the past, so I get why there’s some sort of action being taken there.
But, we’re running cover for narcissists now? What about narcissistic as an adjective? It’s a well established term deriving from Narcissus, used to describe self centered behaviour. What about calling someone ‘a narcissus’ as one might call someone ‘a cassandra’. Medically diagnosed narcissists practically don’t exist in the first place. Are we going to ban calling things socio/psychopathic too?
I think that needs to be rethought.
I’m neurodivergent and trans and I’m perfectly comfortable calling stupid shit stupid
deleted by creator
And I’m capable of changing my perspective, are you? I’ve since realized that there these terms serve no real purpose but to be dismissive, and that there are more accurate ways to describe people’s behavior.
Moreover, I am capable of enforcing site policy without agreeing with things 100%, especially when I understand the reason for the policy being put in place. The messages you just shared are from a discussion where various mods were providing their perspectives in order to come to a consensus for site policy.
Side note; it’s wrecker behavior to sift through someone else’s comments from a private conversation in order to nitpick a quick “gotcha.” I would refrain from such behavior in the future if you value your checks notes 2 month old account.
Continuing to share stuff from other people’s private messages establishes a doxxing risk as it encourages other people to seek out these conversations, of which can include private and sensitive information.
We are continuing to be extremely lenient in this regard, despite it establishing a double standard.
apologies if this violates the disengage, but you’re right that was wrecker shit. deleted the comments and will return to anonymous browsing until i have something positive to contribute. thanks for your work
I appreciate that. And while my initial commentary may been a bit snarky, there’s just been a lot of bullshit going on.
We’re all on edge, and none of us are perfect. But we try to improve as we go along. Struggle sessions are a chance to improve the community, not to attack each other. The recent one was particularly draining for everyone and led to some missteps and shitty behavior/comments from a lot of people.
I perceived the initial comment in the thread as an attempt to litigate further drama in the community by attacking previous decisions by the mod team and further sapping us of our energy.

idk i think you can say this person is a monstrous jackass who should be flayed alive without anyone innocent catching strays
no ableism necessary
Yes it’s clear this thinking has to be addressed and countered. With violence if necessary.
Calling it dumb is arguabley a form of violence but there is always collateral damage that will undermine the desired result.

We went like 2 years without that shit getting deleted for ableism and then i see iirc @miz@hexbear.net in the modlog comment removed for calling a dumbass a dumbass and it’s like, christ, who is this for? Let my people say dumb
i’ll never forget /r/latestagecapitalism banning the word nuts so like you can’t ever even say the word in a culinary context without an entire post removed. I think they changed it but jfc
Because being “dumb” (in both senses of the word) is not necessarily a bad thing. Some people can’t retain and recall reliably as much information or they may learn more slowly, but neither of those things are present here. This person collected a lot of information and can reliably recall it, they’re just wrong. Lack of what one would normally call “intelligence” is not the issue. You could as well call them ignorant, which at least is accurate, but again it’s not morally wrong to be ignorant. Then there’s what we really see here: willful ignorance. Intentionally supporting harmful false facts in spite of presented evidence. That’s not a lack of intelligence, and often the most insidious of these are the more intelligent ones who may use rhetoric or pseudoscience more effectively than this fellow in the post. I know it forces people to use more words and doesn’t allow for snappy comebacks, but maybe we can correctly identify the problem and not marginalize innocent people in the process.
i think you’re making people up who self identify as dumb so you can grand stand and feel good about taking a stand about the horrific harm wrought on society by the word dumbass but that’s just me
I have encountered people who say that insults to intelligence such as those hurt them deeply. I am not one of those myself, so maybe I’m the wrong person to argue this. I’m not making them up, but I won’t claim to know an abundance of them either. In any case addressing the issue or argument is typically more effective than a personal insult. Well, that may not be true, I guess. Conservatives get real power just by punching the opposition, but maybe we can be better than that?
That definition of dumb is extremely limited, you know that people aren’t referring to raw cognitive ability when they call someone dumb or stupid. The word is bigger than that and is used to describe, among other things, exactly them kind of willful ignorance or intellectual laziness that you described the race science guys as displaying. As another poster said, there is no group of marginalized people self-identified or medically classified as “dumb” and there hasn’t been for like two centuries.

What is with this level of hostility? She’s just talking to you in a totally normal tone despite your obviously reactionary line of thinking (We did something in the past and it was fine (according to me) so it’s fine to keep doing it in the future) and you respond by going off on some rant full of personal insults for what, the crime of disagreeing with you? What is the matter with you?

Instead we alienate allies because they say “dumb” when someone is acting dumb.
I don’t think that happened. I’m very skeptical of the idea that willfully letting reactionary thought slide because you’re preemptively afraid of “losing people” is ever a solid strategy. Truth is truth. Throwing around words like “dumb” is ableist and lazy in any context. Someone (or their argument) being “dumb” is never the root problem. Uninformed, out of touch, willfully ignorant, false consciousness, motivated by racism, motivated by self or class interest, these are the real roots of reactionary thought like in the OP.
People are capable of learning to take good faith crit from comrades and learn something without throwing a tantrum about it.
i agree with your sentiment but using “blinded” as an alternative to ableist terminology is a bit jarring.
Because this shit is a waste of energy that could be directed at common enemies
so is fucking crying about it
Y’all deleting comments like this is childish as fuck. See this dumbass sub later. Whiny, childish, and out of touch is what you all are
“We’re revolutionaries” say the people telling me not to use the word “dumb” because your feelings get hurt.
Sick of this community. You can have it. Peace out mother fuckers and enjoy your echo chamber. This is how you lose people, this is how you become bloated versions of yourselves. You’re SO FUCKING SURE of the way it has to be, no willingness to engage or be wrong

I think it’s really strange to characterize intelligence as “being able to retain and recall facts.” That’s usually called “knowledge,” while “intelligence” is usually the ability to solve problems, i.e. to take given facts and make inferences from them. The question of how this person makes inferences is relevant, though I personally am content to call them fascist and be done with it.
Ignorance is often characterized as innocent and apolitical but there isn’t anything inocent about ignoring things and the processes of discovery and systems of value that lead us to information is highly political.
my comment was “d*mbass is over the line now?” and it got removed even though I censored the word in question. you might be thinking of comrade_pibb. I won’t bother to say what I think of it because the mods will probably remove this too
Idk about the other comment but that’s what i was thinking of

I mean, i get it but there should at least be consistency
For me the largest issue with calling people dumb is that it attempts to create a quantitative scale of intelligence that all people fit on. If you complete that line of thinking you eventually end up doing eugenics.
These racist lines of thinking are also not the result of a general lack of intelligence as much as a lack of life experience and empathy.
This is the wrong reasoning though. It comes from gamer brain, a need to feel superior at something, and evolutionary psychology.
This combination of false ideas means that all life experience can be explained away, and he probably thinks he is being empathetic.
He has likely been rewarded for thinking this way his whole life, and generates enough explanatory power for them to feel comfortable expressing it.
What do you mean?
I mean that “dumb” isn’t necessarily something you are, it can be something you do. And posting something like what we see in this screenshot is very obviously dumb as fuck.
There are neurodiverse members of our community who have been called dumb by their peers, families, and teachers their whole lives. Seeing such terminology be used here can be detrimental to their mental health, and normalizing those terms means they’re bound to be used on our neurodiverse comrades if they irk certain people the wrong way.
I’m neurodiverse and was frequently called dumb and stupid, even by my own parents, and I find it a bit infantalizing when people say calling someone having a take this fucking dumb dumb is somehow wounding to me.
Lots of words have been used as insults, I got called nerd a lot in middle school but I’ve never seen any demands to ban that word from the lexicon of this community. I was also called gay as an insult in my youth too but I don’t go around demanding the gay community all start dryly and professionally referring to themselves as homosexuals to avoid dredging up some unpleasant memory. I get banning straight up slurs with histories of horrific violence attached to them but I don’t think we can ever successfully ban any word that makes anyone anywhere feel icky ever at all in any context, and I do think some people here have a habit of overstating harm in order to seem more ideologically dedicated. I also think there are some people who’s vision of a utopian future is one where everyone is painfully polite and friendly to each other which seems dystopian to me as someone who thinks there is beauty to be found in humans’ crassness and vulgarity. It seems an especially odd ideology to embrace on the site that was created by leftists who like vulgar humor.
Also neurodivergent, and this is a good take. Infantalizing NDs is also a problem.
It’s not infantalizing, it’s keeping derogatory comments out of the community. And while you may not personally find these terms upsetting, that doesn’t mean that others don’t. The decision was made after asking the neurodiverse community at large how to improve the site.
Well ¯\ˍ(ツ)ˍ/¯ I guess I missed that discussion, or I would have tried to make this point there.
It is infantilizing, also censoring derogatory comments that are entirely accurate doesn’t help anyone

not want to hold space for knee-jerk, lazy ableism infecting the discourse.
Okay, don’t really have the energy RN to write a more serious reply to this, but if nothing else I want to people out that the users on this site are wildly inconsistent about how serious of a space they want this to be. One minute it’s a BS shitposting forum where people shoot the shit but another we’re all talking about “infecting the discourse”. What fucking discourse? This place is 90% jokes about combining the word penis and bean!
Yeah, there’s very little “discourse” except to litigate site policy. I’d love if the site was more serious and interested in being involved in influencing “discourse,” but it turned away from that idea years ago.
I don’t think how serious the site is or should be matters much to the conversation.
Also, I want to say, I see this weird dynamic play out in leftist spaces where if there’s any discussion on whether something is harmful to a marginalized community and if one person from that community says it is vs another who says it isn’t, the former always seems to assume they have some inherent moral authority and feels at will to speak down to the latter.
I’m not doing that. I’m not even counting on any particular ND person chiming in to say they feel personally harmed by the word. I’m ND myself and I don’t feel any connection to it. That isn’t really the point I’m making, nor the point people were making when it was made site policy.
I would even say ND people on here defending it are wrong to.
How is this take any different from the third way think tank’s “anti-pc” blacklist discourse? https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5465386-democrats-avoid-political-correctness/
I would not independently bring up the comparison, but the inverse of this comparison is closer to the truth, because it’s the “let people say d**b” crowd that are opposing censorship.* I would absolutely not draw a moral equivalence between Third Way and you all (a courtesy you aren’t giving your “comrades” here), but in terms of basic structure there is only one way this comparison can go, so it’s probably better to set it aside because it’s not productive.
*I’m not some shitlib who thinks censorship is the evil of all evils, it’s just objectively what is being discussed here regardless of which side is correct.
In real life, people in the west are primed to be smugly anti- pc/woke/dei what have you by a larger system. It isn’t a reaction that comes naturally from within them.
To be “censored” in any meaningful or impactful sense you have to have been saying some novel thing in the first place.
It’s pretty obvious that this guy is a turbo racist piece of garbage, but I don’t think that equating being stupid with being a bad person actually does anything other than hurt nice, good people who could otherwise be called dumb. I don’t agree with the idea that dumb is something you do but I guess I can see what you mean? But to me at least it mostly falls back into that same trap of undeserving people catching strays.
I’m late to the convo, but I have a (probably weird) suggestion that we resurrect some good (non-ableist, I think?) old-timey words for this purpose, like gollumpus, dunderhead, shabberoon, addlepated, knave, vacuous, benighted, and anserine, to name a few.
This is only about a half-step removed from the shit garden-variety liberals say about Russian and Chinese people.
A lot of western libs want this sort of “race science” stuff to be true because it lets them be condescending to the “lesser races” without feeling guilty about it, and as the west moves further and further into a post-truth society, the more this shit will come back in vogue, though now with shitty video game mechanics added.
non-mediterranean europeans and their north american descendants are absolutely obsessed with starchy root crops, which is why they are mostly known for making bombs, landmines and other bulbous explosives, and are at their most happy when they are putting these in the ground or dropping them over large areas of land, since their brain stem is hardwired to plant potatoes

Honestly if you could cook potatoes like i do you’d get it
if you want to know peak potato
Parcook it by boiling or steaming it until it’s tender enough that a fork can poke through with little resistance, then let them cool until you can handle with your hands, then rip them into small chunks with your hands. Then deep fry them until they’re a dark golden brown, before tossing in seasoning or whatever
This is the best a potato can be. It’s like creamy mashed potato consistency inside, savory crunchy good on the outside, and if you season it good? Mmm (i recommend hatch chili salt w garlic and onion powder)
i’m a fellow tuber eater (culturally-genetically predisposed to it) so i like to eat all forms of potato.
