I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don’t actually think everyone there is insane. I don’t care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point
Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It’s not going to scare me to take this down
Most of the Lemmy.World users and mods are actively advocating to vote for Genocide, so i understand that Hexbear is a culture shock.
Heavily scratched liberal gets banned from hexbear for being a debate pervert and trying to start fights, immediately proceeds to call everyone there mentally ill
To be clear, this is coming from you getting banned for being a debate-pervert after you claimed Putin invaded Ukraine to “reinstate the USSR” as a secret Commie and refused to take a pro-Palestinian stance, equating Palestinian resistance with a century of settler-colonial genocide.
I think it’s a bit terminally online to run away to a defederated instance to lick your wounds, rather than reflect on why being a debatebro is unhealthy.
Yes they are insane/extremists
Nope. They seem pretty sane and rational in comparison to places like Reddit, Lemmy.world, Twitter, 4chan, Facebook, etc.
That persons instance and hexbear are defederated. It’s unlikely they’re a secret hexbear user.
What a disingenous comment. Having two accounts of two defederated instances makes even more sense than having them on two federated instances.
Yep, to be clear ideologically I fall more into the “queer anarchist” camp and am not an authoritarian communist.
I know that hexbear is mostly old chapotraphouse posters who are more in the Marxist-Leninist camp. I don’t agree with them on many things, but I think their brand of being rude and insulting to capitalists and liberals is valid and kind of funny.
Not only is capitalism morally reprehensible and responsible for colonisation, white supremacy, inequality, and genocide. It’s also just a really stupid and nonsensical system that expects infinite growth within a system with finite resources. It’s a death cult with the growth pattern of cancer. Continuing with that system in spite of decades of empirical evidence that it is leading our world into collapse is completely insane in my opinion. People who believe in that shouldn’t be reasoned with, they should be insulted.
Anyway on first glance through hexbear I didn’t see anything “completely insane”. However if I go to somewhere like Reddit what I see is the complete insanity of people justifying and making excuses for morally reprehensible systems such as capitalism and acts of genocide.
I think liberals and centrists view themselves as being rational and reasonable when they’re not at all.
Have you considered that its simply possible for somebody to have an opinion that differs from your own?
