    I knew from reading the headline that Hexbear’s horde of mouthbreathers would show up to brigade and spread their propaganda. Sure enough, here we are

    Edit: You guys really are just proving my point lmao

      Hexbear users rushing to bombard this comment with image reactions to say they’re not brigading

          I play “count the fallacies” with the comments. So far I’ve seen: ad homonim; what-about-ism; strawman ; appeal to popularity ; appeal to authority ; hasty generalization / ecological fallacy

          I get bored well before I stop counting

            Lol I don’t even bother with reading anything they say at all. I just block anyone who’s on Hexbear, I must have half the instance blocked. And my experience browsing Lemmy has been so much better for it!

      Quite literally just blocked their community when they appeared on my feed when I saw the extreme toxicity in the threads in their community, and the strange superiority complex they have going on. Had to do a double take to see what community I was in when I read the comments, thought I accidentally didn’t block them…

      It’s like 4chan had a baby with the extreme “left”, and retained all the mental capacity of the former.

      Ironically they support Russia, the bastion of leftism /s

            They only were recently federated, and got defederated from some large instances like lemmy.world for their explicit intent to brigade other instances and communities to spread their “anti-liberal” nonsense.

          Crying about “tankies” is just calling everything “woke” with extra steps. Not everyone there automatically supports NATO/Ukraine but it’s far from what you describe.

            There are still significant numbers of people denying the genocide currently happening and actively rooting for the invaders, which is why I pointed it out. There’s a reason they have been defederated by so many large instances. This has nothing to do at all with anything “woke” and I don’t see why you’d even bring it up.

            Edit: I just had a look at their frontpage and the first post there is about how the “western MSM” lied about the counteroffensive and how “Stalin shouldn’t have stopped at Berlin”. Yeah, alright. lmao

              Republican: “Everything to the left of me is woke.”

              Republican pretending to be liberal online: “Everything to the left of me is tankie.”

              At the end of the day it’s a word that can mean anything you want, and is only useful as a tactic to divide resistance against right wingers.

      I’ve been interacting with them recently to see what they are all about and lmao I don’t think I’ve ever had a dumber discussion in my life. Truly they are uniquely stupid.

      My cats have learned the wirr motor sound of the feeder means food. So they’ll run from whereever in the house at an motor sound. Suddenly like “it’s food time right? Right? But the noise means food…” Regardless of any further context.

      Same same but different with hexbear.
