Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?

It's that person that thought Putin wants to reinstate the USSR and refused to denounce Israel without equating Palestinian "guilt."

They wandered into a dunk tank post, debate perverted, and whined on Lemmy.world

they’re less like the meeting room of a communist party than like the bar where those communists hang out and drink beer, after the meeting is over.

I actually really like this description. I'm amazed at the number of people in this thread who actually somewhat get it. It's heartening <3

Fucking lol!

Folks is our reputation improving? I'm seeing pretty even splits in terms of people defending our instance vs. scratched libs. Some even saying we changed their minds on things.

I'm flattered that they're still malding over a comment I made more than a year ago. Dot world libs only wish they had that kind of posting power.

I’ve never heard of communism being an economic framework before, I thought it just meant a system without capitalism or a state. Do you have something short I could read about communism being an economic framework?

Ya'll need Marx

Half of the comments are people defending us, with language that's more persuasive than I could do myself. I'm honestly touched.

lol

Hexbear is sort of like a village of eldritch abomination worshippers in a Lovecraftian horror story - isolated, insular, entirely wrapped up in their own esoteric rituals and ideas and language, and immediately and collectively hostile to outsiders.

The Shadow Over Hexxsmouth

the people blocking blahaj 196 for being too left wing lmfao

New tagline just dropped

If you’re saying I’m calling their viewpoints crazy, I’m not. I didn’t get a view point besides I’m pig slop, a piece of shit, brainwashed by the empire (whatever the hell that means), stupid, a basement dweller, and today, I think they called me a pervert

TAGLINE

This is my exact same experience. I ask for someone to elaborate on their stance, get told (not accused, told) I’m trolling. Ask for explanation/definition of a concept, get called an idiot shitlib and told to read some theory. Ask for civility, get told I deserve abuse for “endorsing genocide”. (By the way, I absolutely oppose the genocide in Gaza. But I’m a genocide supporter I guess because I won’t flush my vote third party this November.)

tfw Hexbear wants you to vote third party???? Who is advocating for this???

There's never been one of these "Hexbear is mentally ill because they disagree with me" threads that hasn't been result of someone coming here and getting banned after posting in bad faith. -- Surprisingly, it seems that the rest of the fediverse is increasingly aware of that.

yeah im insane. insanely cool and attractive

It's just reddit again over there, oh man.

mfw I realize I am a member of an insane Lovecraftian cult community that worships eldritch abominations

The OP of that thread has been banned from hex several times because they're a debate pervert who keeps insisting they're open to new information and then refuse to budge when given that information. The worst kind of white liberal MLK wrote of, who is perfectly polite but steadfastly opposed to change. Every time they've posted you can see they're trying to sway us over to their malformed, petty worldview, and it never works because we're all so terminally online we can see through that shit.

insane?

FROM THE VERY START the enlightened centrist starts with "dae everyone I don't like mentally ill and that makes them bad and wrong?"

since '23.

For the uninitiated, crazy = not believing the invasion of Ukraine was step one in Putin's plan to restore the USSR

You can't write this, lmao

It ssems at least some commenters recognize how ridiculously anti leftist lemmitors tend to be:

Bloody hell the fucking irony of .world and .ee here:

I literally recognize a good deal of the ones complaining about hexbear as those serial arguers who are salty they got banned for being shit at arguing

beepbeepbEEPBEEPBEEP

Too cute.

Oh no not tankies! Anyways how about sending more tanks to seig heiling nazis in and those genocidal fascists in ?

This post brought to you by the totally sane War is Peace Department

Once again I'm reminded other instances exist and that they're still taking about us.

So many dumb posts

I have never engaged with any of these other instances, but god damn do they have a lot to say about this place.

Damn we really do live rent free in their heads. This post was on an instance that has never been federated with us lol.

@m_f@midwest.social still pulling that "everyone I don't like is child" bullshit.

This is cute

I guess Liberal Einstein is now sharing the results of their experiment with the rest of the scientific community

We’re all mad here

Yes (complimentary). The world is mad, so insanity is the rational response.

Rent. Fucking. Free.

I’m down. I vote everyone starts to talk to people friendly and respectfully until you encounter people that are disrespectful for no reason

"Let's sit down with those polite nazis!"

sits down

always nice when turbolibs like flying squid go mask off

Who told them I have crippling depression and anxiety? And why they gotta call me names over it?

Someone should shut this site down until we can figure out what's going on.

I mean I am in fact insane but that's because it is no measure of health to be sane in a sick society.

Or, put another way, it's impossible to be a good person and not go insane in such a horrific society. When the "sane" ones are the ones who can stomach genocide, being "sane" is a bad thing.

They called John Brown insane.

YOU BET YOUR ASS BUCKO

ok we pull up

i guess we found out how that "experiment" went

These people are fucking insane. Like actually. https://hexbear.net/post/3384251/5347090

Here you go. This is the actual post that fucking moron made. You can see for yourself that the guy had multiple good-faith responses that he clearly ignored while hyper-focusing on all the ones dunking on him. Like I don't even have to be a liberal Einstein genius to connect the dots there.

Just cram that link down their throats. The ones rational enough won't engage in this slop.

As an Elder Scrolls enjoyer, problematic parts and all, the poster glazing over Sheogorath as the best written character ever has massive "lolrandom equals brilliant" blinders on. Must also find the Penguin of Doom endlessly funny.

Kinda miss dunking on these dipshits...

mm fresh slop

oh hell yeah. happy to see grad is still spooky to them too. as an aside, are midwest.social posters aware that grad is basically the same has hexbear (other than having less shitposting and what not) but is blocked for some reason?

Serious loser energy being emitted from stormfronters as usual.

Linkerbaan@lemmy.world

Most of the Lemmy.World users and mods are actively advocating to vote for Genocide, so i understand that Hexbear is a culture shock

yay linkerbaan fight these losers! big fan of yours keep it- wait whats that next comm-

Linkerbaan@lemmy.world

There’s definitely some users there who go too far in their support for other imperialist superpowers like Russia and China.

Because if America bad Russia and China good is an easy train of thought. Imperialism bad is a more difficult pill to accept.

...

NOOO YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE

(to be clear the ... means there is more to the comment and it's more reasonable but still made me a little disappointed to see this.)

Diagnosed and proud. Libs eat shit and die.

I don't wanna be but

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

true, same

This really isn't fair. What about those of us who aren't in Hexbear but are insane?
