Was talking to one of the admins of Hexbear yesterday and found out there is a whole lot of history to Hexbear and I would love to know more and I was told to say and I quote “Hey I’m mainly new to hexbear, please dump site lore on me like you’re dumping slop in a pig trough”
So please, dump your lore on me, like I’m a piggy rolling waiting to role around in the mud
Edit:
Wait wait wait the infrahaz tried to make an account here? That could not have gone well.
The reason we don’t have
is because certain people were using them to harass our lovely trans comrades and when we got rid of them, all those jerks revealed themselves and got banned real good
Hexbear gotta be easily the most inclusive community I’ve ever been a part of, as long as you’re not a liberal.
And as long as you’re willing to learn and not be a
, we tolerate the libs
As a reformed lib, can confirm
You’re all liberals!
anyone to the right of stalin is a fascist, anyone like stalin or to his left is a liberal.
Ideal Overton Window. I like it. I want a mainstream left so extreme we make Stalin look like the far right.
I’m hexbeanis’ one true liberal 😤
Mutually exclusive, we have a single leftist hat that gets passed around and the rest are libs in the meantime.
Oh damn. I don’t have the hat. I guess I am a liberal for now
It’s also just generally because downvotes don’t do anything good for social media. It’s the subject of a few studies that all they really cause is negative behaviour.
The thing to do around here if you really disagree is to engage in dialog, i.e. reply. This leads to more fruitful outcomes most of the time.
Unfortunately that also means we quickly get accused of “brigading” other instances as they aren’t used to the volume of disagreement that’s being voiced instead of people passively hitting a downvote button.
