Neoliberals have no comradery and see each other as competition. They look for opportunities to tear each other down instead of supporting each other, thus making their community weaker as a whole.

Whereas the communists support one another and seek to help build their community as a whole, thus leading to a stronger, more supportive community.

"The animal species, in which individual struggle has been reduced to its narrowest limits, and the practice of mutual aid has attained the greatest development, are invariably the most numerous, the most prosperous, and the most open to further progress."- Peter Kropotkin

TLDR- Sucks that you don't have our level of solidarity, libs.

We are united in spirit and purpose, comrade. We are one well-oiled shitposting machine. For every poster that falls, ten posters will take their place.

[-] Flinch@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

They say that Hexbear only has enough keyboards for half of its posters, so they send people into threads in pairs, and when the first poster is banned, the second picks up his keyboard and continues posting bugs-stalin

This is unironically the funniest post ever put here, I'm reporting you so the mods can read it

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

this deserves to be a site tagline

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, this is probably one of the best online communities I've ever participated in

Much better than ceaselessly arguing about which Fallout game was the best

100%.

When I'm forced to spend any amount of social time with liberals, especially the more reptilian ones you encounter in academia and managers, especially if they have an explicitly perverted ideology of neoliberalism, and even when they are suposedly best friends, I recognize after not much time that they actually don't like eachother. They hate eachother. They are jealous, petty and envious. They are all insecure. Their understanding of generosity and sympathy is absolutely reducible to a market relation of exchange for profit in purely inhuman sense, and not even in a progressive social sense of reciprocity. They often dontunderstand that friendship can be good in and of itself, perhaps because they are so alienated and toxic that they've forgotten what actual friendship is, and that love is not reducible to material or economic dependence (fantastic scene which shows this in season 3 of Succession, in Italy between Tom and Greg).

I've had many ex-liberal friends become communists just because they were so alienated by their liberal friends that they started hanging out more with communists and were like "oh damn these people actually like eachother and don't try to demean eachother".

Almost all the communists I know who come to hate eachother do so cos of theoretical and practical political beefs.

I migrated from Lemmy.world just so I can upvote communists bullying liberals lmao

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

this is praxis.

I'm thinking about making a alternate on another instance so I can go downvote libs.

[-] potopato@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Are downvotes disabled at Hexbear?

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

yep, we didn't like drive by downvotes from lurkers. everyone must post.

We don't have downvotes, so we respond.

sicko-crowd

[-] potopato@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Lemmy is much more fun since Hexbear joined, leaving lemmy.world is the best decision I made since I came to the fediverse.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Libs don't know what having fun means. Everything is constantly assumed to be totally serious at all times in their spaces and they don't know how to like... Chill the fuck out? Half the posts people are making are from the toilet on a work break. It's just not that serious.

If they chilled out and enjoyed themselves a bit more the whole thing would be 100x better. This is the primary difference between us. We're trying to have fun.

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

Investigated here after the pre-last resort defederation from .world and was confused why people having fun was being construed as "The rhetoric and goal of Hexbar are clear based on their announcement: to “dismantle western propaganda” and "demolish organizations such as NATO” shows that Hexbar has no intention of "respecting the rules of the community instance in which they are posting/commenting.”"

It's like they tried to sound smart and lost me at the 'I came here and looked around for 5 seconds and realized it's not what they were saying it was."

It's because I upvote anyone with pronouns in their username on Lemmy shrug-outta-hecks

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

It wasn't fun at the time, but I'm glad we had the pronouns struggle session long before federation.

[-] dinklesplein@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Liberals disputing vote counts when it doesn't go their way? I swear I've seen this before, but usually in the global south.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

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.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
