Comming from Reddit, I find it really peaceful, but IDK how it was before. Except for the people at Hexbear who bullied me for liking South Park. The socalled "dirtbag left" is basically the proudboys pretending to be far-left.
It's never a bad idea to instance block them. They'll endlessly bully you and gang up like a bunch of school children. The only thing that stops it is to stop responding.
I do not know what you are talking about, you were the one who came put swinging, they reacted like I would expect,
Also proudboys are Fash, guess who is the most anti-fash
Also ypur political annalisis seems to go from "is like trump suporter" to "Is like proudboy" not very nuanced
P.S. I only found this because I had to track down said hexbear post because of the smearing you do with it while convenently not linking it... so for context https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/3197853, it was not for "simply liking southpark"
Track You? No I found this as I was trying to find context to your claim you kept making on Lemmygrad that seemed far feched, but as I said I was giving you the bennift of the doubt, this one poppoed up when I searched the page for Hexbear.
To bully you, also no I am adding context to your constant claim that is blantantly false, I do not understand how someone with a Doctorate in something and 42 years of life still thinks that providing context to a smear is bullying, but smearing a comunity of people, who is one of the most inclusive and welcoming groups on the internet, is not bullying.
And what agian id the deff of dictator, I could easily argue Troudou, Mary Simon or Charly III could be dictators of canada, and Biden the dictator of the US
Also with the bullying, repeated malicious name calling check, constant, and at this point with how many times we have explained to the post I have to assume intetional and malicious miss understanding, Constant calling us facists, and agian, as was explained to you before Communists are not Facists and we dont support trump, nor do we "enable" him, and calling us all "privlaged white boys" agian I would love to direct you to our demographics survey
But the behavior you have been demonstrating is the behavior consistant of a bully, not I, not my fellows from Lemmygrad, not those from Hexbear, so I would recommend, as one human to another, that you take a seat, and reflect, because clearly something is stuck in your craw, and I genuinely hope it gets
Liberals just can’t fathom the possibility that socialists walk among us, therefore they must be cryptofascists or paid shills of foreign States.
I assure you that we have been here all along, despite two red scares and a cold war to try to purge us.
It’s pretty insulting, considering that American socialists helped bring about the weekend and the eight hour workday.
There are socialists, and then there is a fairly new wave of terminally online toxic assholes borrowing socialist rhetoric.
There is a difference between activism and empty virtue signaling. A huge portion of the online left is more interested in letting everyone know how pissed off they are than actually making the cultural gains necessary to improve anything.
Plus they think the stupidest shit matters.
Earlier I saw people complaining about the Hogwarts game because of JK Rowling. Yeah, don't play the videogame based on the book series that was written by a transphobe. Cause somehow that means the videogame and it's developers are all transphobic too?
Someone should tell them transphobic people breathe oxygen, maybe they'll suffocate themselves as activism.
I mean I boycott products if I don't agree where the money is going. Nestle, Amazon, Israel (BDS), etc etc. Everyone who has the capacity should at the very least try to avoid funding people and projects they think are detrimental to life.
How much of the revenue is actually going to Rowling for the product?
I have no idea or interest in finding out, but it isn't zero
There's people who are constructive and try to be polite who have different world views, and then there's the people who just insult and spam racial slurs. The second category gets a block on offending users and a block on an entire community if it's repeated
You know what 'racial slurs' they care about. "White", maybe "privileged", maybe "spoiled", "entitled", "Northerner", "Imperial core".
Considering a lot of them are anti-Semitic, defend USSR invading Poland, some even homophobic. They're literally just larping fascist pigs
Still conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism, I see. First of all, anti-Zionist Jews and non-Zoinist Jews exist.
There is no fediverse instance more queer-friendly and than Hexbear; what are you even talking about?
I am guessing that the reasoning is as follows:
This reasoning does not apply when defending dictatorships of the bourgeoisie such as Imperial America and the British Empire, because
I can think of a few.
Not a pro Zionist. But thanks for putting words in my mouth
You obviously don't know what fascist means. You should probably stop using the word until you go read the definition.
Cool 👍
redfash
Redfashes do exist, but not on Hexbear or Lemmygrad.
Idk what that means
