> Hello all, I hope you have been well and I wish I could say the same for
myself. I am refraining from being pessimistic in this moment but as it stands I
do not feel too good. This has nothing to do with my health or the health of
anyone in my family. Although we’re all physically well, what happened left me
shocked and unable to process everything. Due to the sensitivity of this subject
I won’t object if the mods deem it safer for the community to lock this post. >
> Opening her eyes and then staring into mine, she eased into herself and said
“Your aunt told me you were wondering what happened to my sons.” I nodded,
mentioning what she said about how her sons had experienced some hardships
recently. She looked away and nodded. With a slight smile she looked at me and
said “She also said you had your own opinions on the genocide.” > > At that
point I realized my aunt had communicated my skepticism to her. “I have my own
opinion but I would like to hear what you have to tell me if you don’t mind.”
Still staring at me, she asked, “What do you think happened to them?” > > I told
her that my assumptions were as follows: the son posted something online that
they shouldn’t have, they got detained and were let go within the same month.
After taking a sip of tea, the woman looked upwards for a moment and said “I
would like you to listen to my story before passing judgement.” > > A frown
appeared on her face and she swallowed, trying her best to hold back tears. I
refilled her tea cup and she nodded, thanking me. With both hands she turned the
cup clockwise and then anticlockwise. With her gaze focused on the cup, she
began to speak again. > > “About a year ago they took my son and imprisoned him.
Three men in police uniform came to the door and asked me ‘Where is (son’s
name)?’ When I couldn’t answer, they let themselves in and searched my
apartment, asking repeatedly where he was. I still couldn’t answer. They went
upstairs, found (son’s name), and proceeded to pull him out of his room. He was
in a state of panic but from his perspective he saw me with the men and so he
cursed me and accused me of bringing them here. I couldn’t deny it. I think he
still blames me to this day.” > > A tear fell from her eye and left a mark next
to her tea cup. I could see she was reliving this story as she was telling it. I
wondered how many times she’s put herself through this. Was that the first time
she recollected these repressed memories or was it a daily routine for her? I
felt a deep pain in my chest and swallowed back tears. Continues here:

this is my favorite thing. choice quotes:
“It’s not funny to me anymore that they are the way they are on Hexbear. Now it is just crushing sadness.”
“What the heck is this about the “yellow snow” figures and peeing their pants?
This is either a Hexbear person writing up creative fiction, or else something real that the Hexbear admins quickly edited or something. This is a really bizarre.”
No, it’s not possible to edit someone else’s post on Lemmy as a platform. We can’t even mark a post as NSFW for content warning tags.
The only things we can do to a post that you can’t do as a user are to remove it or to purge it, which removes it from the modlog as well.
We generally only purge posts that contain content that we don’t want stored on our servers. Usually this is someone’s accidentally or foolishly posted personal information, but there have been cases where we’ve purged illegal/reprehensible content like gore or fictional sexual content depicting minors.

The Lemmy devs were very adamant that they never want that as a thing during their AMA earlier this year, just uninformed users being uninformed and jumping to weird conclusions for some reason
Getting into the server room in the subterranean Hexbear compound in the Pyrenees has a 96 hour countdown timer and requires 4 different physical keys carried by admins who live on separate continents.
Boy was I embarrassed when I left my keys in there.
