I wouldn't put it past the hexbear crazies throwing a tantrum. They claim to be left wing... Sure seem more like fascist trumper types though. Maybe it's just that they're all incels and incels all seem about the same.
Downvote from me there. I’ve seen plenty of examples of hexbear people being nice, interesting and good sports. They definitely seem to have more of shitposting culture than is normal on mainstream lemmy. But all in all it’s seemed fun to me from what I’ve seen.
Beyond all that, this is just superficial and prejudicial. If you had some examples to link to or more substantial insights to share as to why it’d be “them”, that’d be worth reading.
Otherwise, they’re an instance. Not one person, I’m sure some on hexbear are assholes and some awesome.
So, so shocked someone it's from lemmygrad that is defending the notoriously toxic "communist" tanky trollfest instance.
Sorry, not from lemmygrad. And I'm on lemmy.ml because I joined before the Reddit migration and "Privacy and FOSS" (the focus of lemmy.ml) made a lot of sense for a lemmy instance/community.
Beyond that ... more superficial, prejudicial hate mongering without any description of why or for what purpose. Sorry, I don't think it's worth reading ... a downvote from me ... and, just being real for a moment ... at the moment it's more likely that you're a member of a "notoriously toxic ... trollfest".
Ironically, IME, I've seen significantly more troll-like tankie hate than I do tankie-trolling. I keep asking for receipts/links to tankie trolling here, as I'm genuinely curious to see it and understand what people are so upset about (please don't explain to me what's so upsetting unless it's culturally thorough or coupled with some links+descriptions) ... but no one has been able to do so.
Most people from hexbear provide sources, which is better than can be said for all the tankie hate.
