They’re intentionally shitty people. None of them have real political views because they are all still in middle or high school and don’t have to pay bills and don’t have real jobs. They’re entire purpose is to troll. They just get on here and look at what anyone is talking about and take the opposing stance to be pricks. Those people would defend any given serial killer or fascist war monger if it meant someone got upset.
People can have “real political views” that are different from yours, y’know.
I think they’re crazy as well, but thinking they’re all just teenagers who don’t know any better is naive. Especially if you look at the US, you should know it’s full of adults with really horrible political views.
The people you’re referring to are xenophobic and use the term “political” to mask their hatred. They wouldn’t know politics if it bit em in the ass (which it’s actively doing with every donation to the orange turd’s fund)
I just can’t wait for the damn emoji bug to get fixed. So tired of the same crappy images being posted by them on every comment thread filling up the screen and making browsing the already crappy tankie thread even worse. So glad LW defederated from them.
Children being thrown off bridges? No, no. He clearly fell. This story is clearly just capitalist propaganda. Great communist countries like China and Russia don’t have murder. Everything atrocious is merely done for self-defence.
Loving horror stories from the west the same way people here seem to love CHINA BAD stories? I visited hexbear a while back and maybe I just happened to miss all that sort of content, but I mostly just saw things like saying trans people have rights and that war is bad. Perhaps I have to actively seek it out, since I just looked at a few pages of posts sorted by active. After that visit, I’ve thought of people screaming about how awful hexbear is as similar to people who pushed the war on drugs and made ridiculous claims like smoking one joint will turn you into a good-for-nothing bum.
@hark@lemmy.world Though I probably will get downvoted for my shameless self-plug and stance against them, you should read my post on Hexbear: https://lemm.ee/post/5751850. If you don’t have time to read it all, you should at least read the tl;dr and the Edit 1 near the end of the post.
So you made claims which you backed up by citing a nazi sympathizer and now you’re mad because they called you out on it and hurt your feelings? Are you new to the internet? I ask because those are really mild responses and you seem like you’ve never encountered resistance in your life. This sums up the whole situation with hexbear nicely. Some people are incredibly mad that people on hexbear don’t share the same viewpoints as them and also those people on hexbear might be a little mean. I don’t see why lemmy.world defederated from them, but I suppose with enough crybabies, anything can be cancelled.
I first cited a nazi sympathizer without noticing this. After they refused to accept this, I cited the UN instead. Guess what they said in the comments? That the oppression of Uyghurs is not genocide.
The comments weren’t entirely mild either. Have you not seen those screenshots of comments using insults? Don’t you think it’s a red flag that such a large portion of hate speech on Lemmy is from Hexbear?
If you like Hexbears, you should leave lemmy.world and go make an account on an instance that has not defederated from them.
Yet if I go directly to the source by visiting lemmy.ml itself, I don’t see the issue you’re talking about. Perhaps you are overly sensitive to viewpoints that differ from your own?
Of course, if I tell you to taste the shit sandwich you’ll say it’s delicious, I’m not here to change your tastes, man. You like what you like and that’s all good. But funny that you use the same regurgitated talking points all these hypocrite tankies use to justify their shit. “I just have a different opinion, you’re just sensitive” and get their panties in a bunch when they get contradicted in the slightest lol
You haven’t even explained what you dislike about that instance, you just went “Fucking yikes. I’m glad I got out of that hell hole.” and then claimed I’m the one getting my panties in a bunch. I can only guess at what the baby is crying about this time.
The comment I responded to was responding to nothing but the article itself, proposing that there are supposedly entire communities that just loves hearing about children getting killed. Essentially what you’re claiming is that the mere mention of something means it must be real. If I spend my time entering every post that mentions forests to talk about bigfoot, steering the conversation in that direction, does that mean bigfoot exists?
Hexbear and Lemmygrad cheering
And yet they constantly whine about being defederated and demand to know what they’ve done, because clearly they’ve never done anything wrong ever.
The answer to the question is simple, honestly. It’s because they’re shitty people.

No no, it’s not “trolling,” they call it alternative debating!
A sad bunch, the lot of them.
Sounds like they’re your run of the mill contrarian cunts
They’re probably just Russia disinformation bot farms for all we know. If they are real people, that’s extremely disappointing to me.
Be disappointed, because many of them are real people.

Yeah, Bernie Sanders is such a totalitarian.

If you think that terrible people can’t be adults with jobs I suggest you go downtown and eavesdrop on people wearing suits.
Are you aware that Lemmy is written by people like that? I haven’t checked, but I don’t think that they’re all teenagers.

But then how will you appreciate the 1000 different variants on a clown face labelled “Liberals” ?? 😱
Is this something that only happens on the desktop version or what? I’m on Jerboa and people keep mentioning it but I’ve never seen it.
You’re not missing out
Your instance is defederated from them, so you wouldn’t see those comments.

Lemmy.world’s take on red scare propaganda
You, seeing this horrific headline: “Oh boy, I can’t wait to dunk on my hated strawman enemies with this!”
Go check out hexbear, those guys love horror stories from the west. their dicks get so hard over it it’s insane.

Are you saying that because they defend China on some aspects that they defend China on ALL aspects?

They aren’t strawmen. If they were this discussion wouldn’t be happening.

If only it was bullshit. Unfortunately it’s not
They can’t comment here so I guess we’ll never know.
Good. Fuck them.

No it hasn’t
You say that like we were the ones instigating with stones thrown from glass houses…
Where? I haven’t seen anything like this.
