they don't even seem to be tankies
The greatest insult I've seen levied at us
hexbears are libs confirmed
Arguing that cracker is a slur is very "all lives matter" energy.
Also who here thinks that USSR or China are fascist pretending to be communist? Like what the fuck even is that?
It doesn't have the connotation of a slur, but it's undeniably "a derogatory race-based term." I don't see how an in-person organization in the U.S. could be successful while allowing that, so it's always struck me as extremely online that we do.
This is a case of "page of reactionary screed that includes one decent point made poorly," and us being reflexively contrarian, which is 90% right when dealing with reactionaries but still leaves some considerable blind spots.
Nah. This guy already knows the counter argument and is itching to debatebro. Calling him a cracker and banning him is objectively correct
Anyone who is not joining because of the word Cracker was never gonna join
lmao it's that weirdo
why does everybody who gets banned here feel the need to make an account on another instance to whine about it lol
they're pretty adamant about communism but everyone thinks the USSR, CCP, etc are fascist dictatorships pretending to be communist.
How has anyone possibly come away from here with that takeaway? Most people I've interacted with here will have specific concrete criticisms with all of the above, not just "oh it's fascist". That kind of critique is more what you would see in sectarian ultra or trot spaces. I swear people just gossip about us or something.
another kkkrakkka down
Unlimited bans upon blahaj.zone users
Who the fuck is in here saying USSR and CCP are fascist, show yourself it’s time for self crit
When did libs crying about Cracker becoming thing ?
Remeber few years ago that chuds whould get dunked by libs for doibg the same.
I believe it began over streamer drama, when twitch banned some big streamers over it.
This idiot doesn't realize I've given all my allies here the cracker-word pass.
Maybe if they'd just do a little research.
don’t understand the impulse to go around posting Ls like this, does admitting to being a fragile white ledditor have some benefit?
I assume getting offended by scary, civilityless hexbears is a rite of passage for them.
don't be a cracker, won't be called a cracker
I don't know how many people here have actually been to a Cracker Barrel but I was forced to go by a family member once and to this day I remember how racist it felt in there--it was like walking into a cracker miasma.
We have got the be the worst place to troll. Every time some tries we just put them on blast till they get banned and then sit around laughing at how dumb they were.
That’s the bad trolls.
The good ones are less obvious and better at stoking drama in more subtle ways (ie taking the side of one faction on the site and leading a charge against another)
Lol imagine being upset about being called a cracker
Being called a cracker is a quantum state, it may or may not be applicable depending on who's saying it, but if you get offended by it the quantum state collapses into a condition of definite crackerdom.
Crackers seething
Also totally incapable of reading the room, we definitely are “tankies”
Crackers who want to say cracker is a racial slur be like:
crackers really love that fake oppression.
Its a pretty easy test. If cracker offends you, then you're a cracker. Do some self crit
Wtf? I love the USSR.
shut the fuck up cracker
This is Hexbear. I'm going to need to ask you to call them a cracker 11 more times.
this is hexbear. I've already used my 11 alts to call them cracker.
12 times per alt please, or they may not notice the pattern.

That's 143 times. You and your alts are covered. We are, after all, "pretty adamant about communism", so I'll help you out, but please remember to call them a cracker exactly 12 times per alt next time.
Cracker is a racial slur... And it's hilarious! Not only is the USSR and PRC based af, so is the DPRK and Cuba.
STFU tollhouse lib.
Maybe its just me but I think the majority of that comment just reads like as a former HB user truth story.
Oh man I guess you shouldn't have angrily direct-messaged people about how much of a cracker you are!
I can sometimes feel a bit sorry when a young, politically clueless person sees us talking about the evil that whiteness is and starts thinking "damn, my skin is kinda whitish, why they hate me :(", but also, that's not being the target of racism. One of the few cases where the typically right wing retort to grow a thicker skin is the actual solution, that and stop associating your light skin tone with the inherently racist conception of "the white race". But I find that once someone goes beyond that to being insulted by the word cracker, it's no longer such an innocent reaction.
