You will only get anti-hexbear answers because iirc theyve been defederated. Hexbear is a communist instance that has its roots from /r/ChapoTrapHouse. They're disliked by some beause they're aggressive and often intentionally inflammatory.
What they're NOT is alt right trolls in disguise as some idiots claim. Some people just can't comprehend that there's any position to the left of neoliberalism.

Kinda not hard to see it like that because a lot of them seems to defend Russia.
Russian trollfarms don't just target the right.

I'm sorry, but this is asking for a mental gymnastics meme.
Mental gymnastics: They don't defend Russia. They just recognize that the US is bad. It's better to have a counterbalance in geopolitics. They're still lefties. It just happens that Russia fills that niche. They don't actually like Putin.
Mental non-gymnastics: They claim to be lefties. They seem to defend Russia. They're strawmen.
But no, I agree with you that (at least a good deal of) Hexbear is actually left wing. Except there are probably some right wing poser trolls among them, and it's hard to say how many. There are probbably right wing poser trolls among us too. Hehe among us.

Yes. This is the only reason I dislike them, to be clear.

No. This is ridiculous. It's also ridiculous when people say that Marxism is "just as bad" as Nazis. I'm not Marxist myself, but this is an absurd comparison I've seen a lot of people make.
