    The structure of moderation with mods and admins able to unilaterally take action

    ideally, every awful, hateful comment must be submitted to a committee made up equally of mods, admins, and users for moderation decisions.

    every ban is the result of a super-majority vote of the committee

    /s, just in case

      This is literally any website. Somebody somewhere (probably a handful of people) can press the power button. It’s “authoritarian” by nature cause if you piss them off enough, that power can be exercised.

      If you want to have a truly “free” space online, then it’s gonna take a shitton of offline work to build an institution to administrate it. Whining online … Is not that…

      In the posting justice system, cringe based offenses are considered especially heinous.

      In Hexbear, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Posting Unit.

      These are their stories.
