  • This is my exact same experience. I ask for someone to elaborate on their stance, get told (not accused, told) I’m trolling. Ask for explanation/definition of a concept, get called an idiot shitlib and told to read some theory. Ask for civility, get told I deserve abuse for “endorsing genocide”. (By the way, I absolutely oppose the genocide in Gaza. But I’m a genocide supporter I guess because I won’t flush my vote third party this November.)

    Hexbear is a community that expects you to conform. Every time there is a post like this, someone comes out of the woodwork and says “They’re nice people if you talk like them and agree with them on everything.” It’s cool that you’re not getting abused, but abuse is coming from that space, whether or not it is happening to you.

    It’s a shame because I would like to hear the nuances of their viewpoints, but I can never get them to tell me what they are. Always complaining that nobody tries to understand, but dogpiling on anyone that asks questions. Then they pull up your report history and tell you “It’s just a little dunking bro, stop being a snowflake” for not putting up with it.

    Users of Hexbear, if you’re reading these words, do better. Nobody is going to sympathize with your cause if you antagonize outsiders that want to learn more.











  • Sorry, but I’m not going to be polite to assholes who try to claim the moral high-ground by repeatedly telling my comrades they don’t care about minorities because they refuse to support the genocide of other minorities.

    Our (realistic) options are unfortunately both going to lead to things continuing as they are in Gaza. But one of those options will be significantly worse for queer people in America.

    You are a shitlib. And you will remain one until you self-crit and dismantle your current way of thinking.

    Can you stop talking like you’re terminally online for two seconds?





  • Alright then we can continue this new thread.

    Does the PSL have any chance of winning this year’s election?

    Heck I didn’t know De la Cruz was running in that party.

    EDIT: Apparently I was thinking of the De La Cruz people and Google have heard of (Elly, the baseball player), instead of Claudia De La Cruz, the socialist candidate I’ve never heard of in my life. I’m sure between now and November she’ll figure out a way to clinch it.
