one of their tankie leaders just got caught calling trans issues “western pink washing.”

Your whole post is made up, but this is at least a specific claim that also didn’t happen. Pics or you’re talking shit.

I didn’t realise committing genocide made people look good, I guess. You know those militaries kill lgbt people too right?

lol, what disruption did they do when LW “pre-emptively defederated” them “as a last resort”? Or did they just get banned for being leftists?

I cannot facepalm hard enough when I see lgbt people (or anyone) who praise western genocidal military alliances either. What’s your point?

They’re an explicitly leftist comm, a lot of people take offense to being called out on right-wing assertions, and the .world’ers whip up myths without having ever seen or federated with Hexbear themselves.

That’s all really - Take a glance at the site if you want to know what it’s about, rather than take people at their word on it.

Utter nonsense, left unity is real. And yes, I have accounts on both, I didn’t realise that was a secret spy crime :)

Did anybody say admins aren’t entitled to block stuff? User just wanted a system to see everything and block what they didn’t want.

Fuck off with this aggressive bad-faith shit.

Just not true. There are a lot of anarchists on there. In fact a large portion of their emotes are dedicated to left unity.

How did Hexbear ever harass everyone here? Lemmy.world never even federated with them for a second.

Lol. Absolute nonsense. Every time anyone is asked for an example of bad Hexbear behaviour they can only ever say “I HAVE NO EXAMPLES BUT I PROMISE IT WILL HAPPEN”. Speak about other people like they’re human beings pl0x

All I can say is that you clearly have no familiarity with open source development or the active contributors within it.

Sorry, I should’ve been clearer, the myth you spouted isn’t just baseless, it’s actually been disproved. Different generations change their political leaning in different ways as they age.

You have no right to hold this over people’s heads, and even implying that someone who does “more than just vote” isn’t doing their part. Some of us have demanding jobs, kids, family that requires care, or other demands that do not allow time for voting instead of attending the occasional local better-timed rally which has already been made extremely difficult in some areas.

In short: get fucked. Go do activism. Don’t try to create some kind of one-upsmanship game that predicates your civic responsibility on someone else’s volunteered time.

It’s more than nothing at all. Are you suggesting we should just vote and otherwise lay down and wait for fascism to descend upon us?

Hey, Trump was already president for four years, and didn’t do this despite the exact same scaremongering back then. His actions in office were practically identical to Biden’s now.

Thinking the Democrats (or Republicans) are interested in passing any meaningful electoral reform is pure delusion.

This remains a myth unsubstantiated by any data or evidence.

The first line in Wikipedia “Socialism is an economic and political philosophy encompassing diverse economic and social systems[1] characterised by social ownership of the means of production”.

To be clear, this definition goes back to 1832, where the original inventor of the word used to define a society “based on the shared ownership of resources”. So it is not just “the communist definition” it really is the definition, it did not “originally” refer to anything else.

Sure I’ll just go in my alt-history time travel machine and be born in a communist state. Sorry for suggesting we improve things somewhat?

90% of the shit spouted about Hexbear is just baseless nonsense. Soon as you actually try to have a good faith discussion, they’re hecka cool.
