The few conversations I’ve had there have been unproductive and inflammatory. While even in other instances when I’ve said something someone disagreed with they would at least support their statement. Also no one would tell me why the “Confused Unga Bunga” meme is racist but they keep accusing me of it. I’m all for open discussions but even the comments there are so angry and toxic.
Edit: I’m reading every comment and taking everything people said and considering all sides. My stance on the phrase has changed but I am still hesitant about giving hexbear a chance. I’ll sleep on it though.
I’m still tripping on how the phrase “seizing the means of production” doesn’t sound good to most of y’all, but if a mf said “give the billionaires the guillotine treatment” there’s a lot of people like “hell yeah bro.”
Its less the socialism that users have a problem with and more the genocide apology and dictator simping.
Any examples of genocide apology by hexbear users?
People invariably point to the Uyghurs and apologisms about China in general. I’m sure that stuff exists, just as it does in any leftist space, but I’ve never interacted with it so I highly doubt it’s some great cause people pick up torches for. Then again maybe it is and I’ve just never seen it.
