snarky know-it-alls that believe that they possess the most advanced political analysis derived almost exclusively from parroting reddit comments which have slowly turned their brains into velveeta

but anyway, enough about Lemmitors.

Hexbears are actually a nice bunch if you read through the comments on the current megathread. They just have very little tolerance for self-satisfied libs that congratulate themselves for thumping the Washington consensus-approved ideologies that most of hexbear graduated from years ago. Even I find it difficult to read lemmy comments because they're legitimately what I would've written as a teenage redditor in the late 2000s.

Your first paragraph calls the rest of Lemmy arrogant and stupid. Next paragraph you say in one sentence that you're "actually a nice bunch", then spend the rest of it criticising and patronising the rest of Lemmy for not being as smart as you.

Then you wonder why people have a problem tolerating you.

let's be real, if my comment ended at the fist paragraph you would've upvoted and moved on. Multiple comments in this thread belittle hexbear users as children as well, but you don't have as much of negative reaction against that.

They're just fascists LARPing as socialists. They're not taking down the man. They're supporting the man, just that the man they're supporting is oppressing people in another country. They're either working for an oppressive government or they're privileged white kids that think their internet image matters more than the hardships of people in the oppressive countries the support.

And also a bunch of trolls who think "dunking on" anyone who remotely disagrees with the tiniest things is a personality trait. Their entire stated purpose of federating was to brigade and harass people enmasse.
