A member of the French instance Jlai.lu suggests to defederate hexbear due to their problematic behaviours, including calls to violence. Hexbear members arrive, call for the destruction of Paris

Funny, because not too long ago I saw a bunch of HBs and MLs going on about how "the libs can't go more than one comment chain without wishing death and torture on anyone not voting like them"

Now who else do I know of where every accusation is a confession... Or projection, if you will.

Seems like a lot of them like to Gaslight, Obstruct AND Project.

I've always felt this way about tankies and the horseshoe theory in general. Conservatism spawned from the "Bourgeoise"; all the religious lords and landowners who profited from, and supported, monarchs and authoritarian rule. Tankie belief systems align with that "bourgeoise" perfectly.

The concept of authoritarian socialism is a contradiction. Without democracy, freedom of thought, and freedom of person — from fear of retribution for wrongthink — the workers never had a say; never "seized" control of anything. Tankies are nothing more than a continuation of the authoritarian rule that came before them. Both Hitler and Trump have said they represent the wprking class. Saying you represent the working class is meaningless. You need to prove it with your actions.

Ultimately tankies are closer to the Tsars, Kings, and colonialism they replaced, than they are to the concept of freedom and equality for the working class. They just want to be the oppressor, and probably believe that communism is the best chance they have to ever be in a position to fulfil that role.
- I agree, though I think they latch onto communism as a sign of virtue signalling.
Hexbear users very literally threatening to kill me is one (just one) of the reasons I hate that instance. The .ml instances aren't much better.
- .ml is just the public facing arm of the same terroristic people. An example is "Sinn Féin" from the IRA times.

So, one of the more conservative Hexbear user then?

Thanks for thinking of this community, blaze!

Thank you for your comment there !

"Colonoids," that's novel. Seems like there's some overlap and cross-pollination with right-wing (particularly incel) rhetoric, huh? Still, nice to see frauddogg moving beyond "peckerwood" and "cracker." Variety is the spice of life.

If it looks like a duck... These people are not leftists in any fashion whatsoever.
- It's almost like reducing human interaction to two poles, Left and Right, is a fool's errand leading to indoctrination and segregation and is generally just a silly thing to do
Slurs are ok as long as they’re on the approved slurs list
- You won't ever find any 'approved' slurs here.
You clown little did you know I can't seem to read

I'd be a lot more interested in hearing there point of view if it had evidence backing it up. There beliefs are more religious than anything. Its like asking a Catholic to prove creation.

What is hexbear? I have heard many people taking about it, but sure why users from that instance are aggressive/rude

A role-playing instance where disaffected middle-class American boys act as third-world revolutionaries from the mid-1980s.

Oh and they like to communicate by image reactions because that's how Twitch raised them.
- Tankies are actually overwhelmingly high-class. Usually college kids
I have to disagree with users saying it's just a bunch of communists and rich college kids.

I think the core of that instance is a state-funded disinformation effort. Sure, there are real people on there, especially vegans, leftists extremists, queer people, Arabic people, because they're the target of their propaganda.
- "State funded" could mean anything.
  
  Although now that I think about it Lemmy could be state funded.
it's basically reddit but edgy by rich college kid standards
- Reddit is 50/50 Tankies & Nazis. Fediverse is like 90% Tankies & other terrorist simps, even outside of the Tankie instances. It's a complete clown show on all platforms honestly. I almost wish climate change wasn't such a slow cooking thing.
While trying to avoid labeling expressions for my answer, from what I could gather, Hexbear is an instance where at least the active users (can't say for the quite ones) are very pro-socialism/communism, and that seem to be very aggressive towards anyone that shows to not be favorable to revolutionary ideals, specially the ideals aligned to the aforementioned regime.

Hey! I'm the clueless guy who posted thinking it would just be our instance...

You know what they say, you can't make an egg without breaking some omelettes or something...

ANYway they got real nasty with our mods and admins and I think they really outdid themselves this time, so much so that we are having a vote now on both hex and grad even though the main admin was not on my side initially.

Their worst enemy is themselves.

Any city built on top of a mess of tunnels ready to collapse at any point should be levelled and rebuilt somewhere safer.

I mean forget the Paris catacombs, but London, that city's a danger to itself!
