malicious hexbears are taking advantage of people's trauma to turn them against the west folks (and judging by the recent survey, turning them trans too? 
)

I made a TLDR here: https://hexbear.net/comment/5484512
The Dredge Tank. For posting all the low tier reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else. Got some bullshit from Reddit with 2 upvotes and want to share, post it here.
This community was created with the purpose that Rule 8 fans will just block it.
The rules are literally The Dunk Tank's rules, just without rule 8.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
first we were acused of "love bombing" now apparently we are an abusive partner and groomer of children lol
this is like the friendliest place on the internet (as long as you aren't a chud and are open to leftist thought)
we do have struggle sessions but i stay out of them (and they seem pretty rare these days)
i need context we were accused of love bombing??? what does that even mean? and to be totally fair to the OP they were saying we are abusive parents, not an abusive partner
i think maybe an explicitly communist version of beehaw if it exists would be more "friendly" although I havent heard of anything like that, ultimately you can still on occasion get some pretty mean things said on here during heated arguments that are deemed ok with the mods. I also dont want maximal friendliness, i want people to be passionate about what they talk about and a place where you cant go overboard and insult people would feel really sterile to me
the love bombing thing was from some .world account when they were doing their "preemptive defederation". claimed we were love bombing but also 4chan and secretly right wing.
but yeah there's like a fake, saccharine kind of "friendly" say in many places on reddit that is really artificial and cloying
i don't mean that more that people tend to have real conversations here even if we are still all online-brained. none of the smarmy lib stuff. and yes there is a lot of passion but people know when to walk away and cool off generally
Lmao how coddled do you have to be to think this place is remotely like 4chan?
lol they actually call us "hexchan" over at .world
They what
Aw cute, they call us by an anime name
Even /lit/ is edgier than we are
god i was heavily involved in the fighting of that thread with my grad account im surprised i dont remember it. the thread was fucking huge though so i probably just missed it
i actually think a space with heightened civility rules could be made to work with communists, i find a lot of the worst, idk, gross smarmy passive aggressiveness comes from liberals in online spaces. i guess i'd have to see one try it to see if my theory works out
