I am genuinely confused about how Hexbearians thought being dicks on the internet was going to change any hearts and/or minds

The Shittier 4chan™️

They arent just dicks. They are maniacs who are in favour of the genocides commited against ukranians and uyghurs.

Because it worked on them. At some point someone was a smug, obnoxious cunt to them online and they were like "Wow, thanks, I guess I'm a communist now!"

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Me but with Vaush and he supports a more democratic and less genocidal version of communism.

[-] Zetta@mander.xyz 9 points 1 year ago

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I sort of look at them as amusement. It's not like what they want will happen In our lifetimes (or ever probably). I don't necessarily get why everyone hates them, just try looking at them as funny content lol

You must not have seen the amount of genocide denial they do, or the amount of simping for dictators.

What's weird is that I don't remember the Chapo guys doing any of that, they seem pretty solidly democratic socialist.

I guess that's what happens when you let your community mods be Putin bots or whatever dumbfuckery went on.

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 year ago

It's also what happens when you lock yourself in an echo chamber for long enough, you views will drift.

But the Chapo crowd always had tendencies towards brigading and whatnot which is why Reddit eventually deleted their sub.

Plus the Chapo crowd were firmly "Bernie or Bust," which was a pretty shit view at the time.

They are the best example what happens when people are locked in their echo chamber. They are radicalizing themselves to the point of absurdity. The statements they make are so illogical its hard to even have a discussion about it, because they literally deny truisms.

[-] Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

I genuinely don't understand why the admins are dragging ass and not just defederating from them already. They provide nothing of value, just spam and harassment.

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

Because if memory serves both Lemmy.ml and Lemmygrad share some admins with each other

And with Lemmygrad and Hexbear loving each other: federation is going to stay a thing over here

One of the things I love about the instance I'm on is that we're defederated from Hexbear, it's pretty nice NGL

[-] Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Well that certainly explains a lot.

[-] pinkdrunkenelephants@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Because you're on a tankie instance. Go to sopuli.xyz; the admin banned all extremists left and right so it's smooth sailing.

[-] NoiseColor@startrek.website 3 points 1 year ago

Is there a way to see who has defederated?

wanna-be-edgy teenager who unironically wears Che Guevara t-shirts, mostly.

Also the kind that say anything western is the devil, and anything Russian and/or Chinese is the great saviour/perfection/whatever other bullshit.

[-] Zetta@mander.xyz 0 points 1 year ago

So would the people from hexbear be considered tankies?

[-] Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Welp, tried to delete my account and fuck off from this place due to that knowledge, but apparently account deletion doesnt work. so I'm just fuckin off.

Thanks for the info, made the decision easier.

[-] Dubious_Fart@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago

Apparently so.

[-] Zetta@mander.xyz 0 points 1 year ago

Ahh I guess that's a good reason to hate them
