I have only been active on hexbear since last year, and checking in from time to time before that, so some of the taglines don't make any sense to me. Can someone please explain?

I agree, as good leftists we do need to be critical of ourselves and other leftists to further our progress, we call them 'struggle sessions', I know that's riffing on the Chinese Cultural Revolution but to me that gives them a negative connotation. What can we learn by only discussing the things we agree with? It's good practice for learning how to give and receive criticism without taking it too personally or getting overly emotional as well. Obviously this doesn't apply to reactionary views or fascist apologia.
I DISAGREE WITH YOU AND THINK YOU SUCK!!!
Dang it, I asked for this
No you didn't and saying you did is revisionism.
Dear god I can't handle the struggle
Yes you can. Not believing yourself is a form of liberalism
Believing in yourself is bourgeois decadence
