"So, you mean they're homophobic?"

"Well, no, but-"

"So they're misogynistic? Racist? Transphobic? Ableist???"

"N-no, actually they enforce strict banning on all those things, BUT-"

"So they bully people into suicide?"

"Nooo, they require content warnings for even mentions of suicide, BUT!"

"...Yes?"

"I saw one of them say 'death to nazis!"

"So they're the opposite of 4Chan?"

"NO!"

Hexbear captures a bit of the wonder of the early days of the internet for me. It's something that was lost in time but has now returned in the year of our lord 2023. Hexbear has quickly become my favorite online community/forum. Its unique culture, including features like 'struggle sessions' about outdoor cats, makes it even more endearing. Additionally, the news megathread is greeeeat.

many people are saying this

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Hexbear has extreme posting power and a cohesive site culture like 4chan does, but unlike 4chan, the usersbase isn't made up of weird misanthropes.

[-] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

most of us aren't misanthropes, but we're definitely weird af lol

i get your drift, tho, this place completely lacks the malicious destruction of any respect for oneself and other human beings that is the hallmark of 4chan

I'm not sure HOW one would be a lefty without having some faith in humanity.

It's difficult sometimes, but what keeps me going on a bad day is the belief that people and society can still be better. bloomer

... after all the fascists are in a hole.

[-] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

If this is the 4chan of the left then where is my zip file entitled "Dungeons and Dragons rulebooks" but is just gigabytes of dolphin porn?

[-] SaniFlush@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

You mean Savage Species? I guess character options that overpowered are LIKE porn...

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Wouldn't leftist 4chan just be leftypol?

[-] JuryNullification@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, there’s no porn here

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah /siberia/ is full of porn.

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

If you ban transphobes and racists on sight, you're just like 4chan. That's why we should be like the enlightened lib instances and let them be.

[-] nonbinarytwink@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

I read a few threads complaining about hexbear and was surprised to find myself agreeing with a lot of the hexbear users replies.... so now I'm here too 😊

[-] Venus@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

This is the chapo way. Even if everyone defederates from us, we're still the specter and we'll get tons of growth just from libs talking about us in hushed whispers

[-] Shinji_Ikari@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

They always try to demonize us but it doesn't work. Its not like 4chan where you go there and you're immediately horrified.

You come here and people are like "look at this cool mushroom" or one user that has been posting swords for 3 years straight and you're like "ok these claims are greatly exaggerated".

Wait, the boy kisser isn’t an actual emoji? You should post on !emoji@hexbear.net.

The great tradition, I followed it myself back when reddit was hyperventilating over something called Chapo Trap House

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

"Go back to chapotraphouse" they told me.

"What is a chapotraphouse?" I asked.

[-] Aabbcc@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

Hexbear feels like leftist 4chan because of the aggressive "in group" culture and crude humor (PPB)

But at least you won the argument against yourself. Nice work

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago
[-] Aabbcc@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

Haha you made me look like the silly person! Oh you got me good

[-] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

The funniest part is when you libs try to do the snarky oneliner thing and only come up with cringe like that.

[-] Aabbcc@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure the funniest part is still the ever pervasive "anyone who has any criticism is a lib"

[-] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Anybody on here is a lib shrug-outta-hecks

[-] JuneFall@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Seems you dislike hexbear cause they call you out on ableism, which isn't "in group" culture, it is not being a dick to allies and comrades.

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Seems that their default to anything they don't like is to gaslight people with old Reddit "you must be mentally ill" cringe. Gross.

[-] Aabbcc@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

Yeah they're so reddit and that's so bad

Not you though, you're in the in group and that's cool!

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Eww, I'm not cool

[-] JuneFall@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Okay quick question, did you apologize for your ableism? When my daughter played with someone and she was mean to them they had to make up, did you?

Using ableist talk like

delusional

does seem that you have do away with your tendency to combat your saneism, too.

[-] Aabbcc@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

https://lemm.ee/comment/2106421

I guess you didn't finish going through my post history. Yeah I apologized in a shitty way then went to fix it but it was deleted by then

What's the non ableist/saneist term for "not grounded in reality"?

[-] JuneFall@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don't actually go through your post history. You also did a non-pology. Not an apology. That you know.

Still waiting for that till you become a person able to speak with again.

[-] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

It's funny how all of the most vocal "we must defederate from hexbear NOW" libs turn out to be either racist, transphobic, ableist or all of the above as soon as you apply the tiniest amount of pressure on them.

really no surprise they're scared of people showing actual solidarity with thier victims

[-] RadicalCandour@startrek.website 0 points 1 year ago

This is the first time I’ve heard of Hexbear. Can someone explain what it is?

[-] VHS@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

we're a socialist community with a largely casual/shitposting tone that descended from the banned /r/chapotraphouse subreddit. we've had our own site for about 3 years but just recently federated
