Remembering to look for and ignore folks with that telltale indicator has made the fediverse so much more enjoyable.

    can’t say I agree with there being anything particularly out of the norm with Hexbear beyond their leftism

    Eh… Imo they tend to be very small tent about their leftism. Anything that runs against the popular grain can get you blocked or get you told you’re a dirty lib.

      That’s true of all groups, though, hsving a relatively cohesive range of acceptable opinions. What sets Hex apart is the leftism.

        To different degrees… Hexbear is particularly bad.

        What sets Hex apart is the leftism.

        Lol, I’m a socialist… I have a problem with Hexbear. They would much rather dunk on people than engage in dialogue and welcome people into the community.

        Hexbear has obviously had issues with this to the point where the mod team has had to remove forums and put out warning to their own community to stop sexism and transphobia.

        You’re just conflating any criticism of the community as criticism of leftism, even when it’s coming from people on the left. You know, the thing that stated this whole conversation.

          Hexbear takes transphobia and sexism far more seriously than most other instances, you’re acting like sexism and transphobia is a prominent issue on Hexbear. Hexbear can be quick to dogpile, but that’s true here on this very thread as well from Lemmy.worlders (or at least attempts). I’m indeed identifying the core issue percieved with Hexbear as the leftism itself, the strict adherance to Marxism and anarchism.

            I disagree… When the mods handed out temporary bans for people people being sexist there were people calling them counterrevolutionary.

            you’re acting like sexism and transphobia is a prominent issue on Hexbear. Hexbear

            It’s a prominent issue on most all of lemmy

            Hexbear can be quick to dogpile, but that’s true here on this very thread as well from Lemmy.worlders

            Yeah… Lemmy.world is trash. Not exactly a place I would like to compare a place I like too.

            core issue percieved with Hexbear as the leftism itself

            And I would say that can be true even in most cases, but we aren’t talking about most cases. The accusation is that you are deflecting valid criticism by conflating all criticism against Hexbear as a general criticism against leftism. You know…the thing you continue to do.

            strict adherance to Marxism and anarchism.

            Lol, anarchist get dogpiled on Hexbear constantly.

            If you can’t engage in honest discourse then I don’t think this is going anywhere. Which is another problem with people on Hexbear and sometimes .ML, people are so set on “winning” an argument they utilize logical fallacies by rote.

            Have a good one.
