In the past few weeks I feel like I’ve seen a lot more conservative comments being posted on Beehaw. Where before it seemed like occasionally some dazed right-winger would wander through now and then, it now seems a bit more like they specifically show up to any thread that brushes up against one of their pet issues.

The most recent example I’ve noticed is around the stuff with the Ladybird devs being weird about being asked to use inclusive pronouns, but it seems like a pattern.

Has anyone else noticed this? Any thoughts on a course of action other than blocking them all individually or reporting particularly grievous examples?

I really would be disappointed to see every single thread here slowly inundated with pettiness and hate.

    I’ve noticed a few things here and there, especially when joining in on news threads on .world

    It’s mind blowing how racist I’ve seen people be, and I’ve seen some wild anti-queer stances too.

      .world is awful. I honestly think it is legitimately worse than r/All of Reddit, even today.

      At least the actual people on r/All are there for entertainment and fun.
