    So they’ll take the word of Russia, a country who’s Government lies so much I’m surprised they haven’t been caught lying over the colour of their skies, over Ukraine who Russia invaded and stole land from underhandedly?

    Sounds about right for Tankies…

    Also, are they seriously suggesting Ukraine is the one using human wave tactics? Russia has thrown so many bodies at Ukraine that they’re struggling to find more bodies to throw into the grinder.

      so many bodies the Ukrainians created the term ‘ditch meat’ to describe all the abandoned, rotting russians.

      No, it’s for sure the country with I believe just under 1/3 of the population which is throwing as many bodies as they can at the front. Definitely. It only makes logical sense.

    I love how they almost always close with something about NATO. They aren’t even fighting NATO. They invaded a country and they’re fighting the people who live there. If they were fighting NATO this would of been over laughably fast. They can’t even fight NATO donated gear 2-3 generations old used by soldiers hastily trained to use it.

    Obviously the only two options in this war are that children die (because of NATO) or they get kidnapped to Russia. No other options, none.

      It’s an affectionate nickname for Hexbear. You might know that they behave like a bunch of 4channers, throwing and smearing their poop around; and Hexagon=>6 sides (must spell it out clearly, else the smart kids won’t understand)… both combined make 6chan.

        can anyone explain why I keep seeing their garbage after attempting to block everything hexbear related? I don’t even mind the occasional tankie that much, but this lot is fucking bonkers.

            had issues with lemmy.world for a while and went to lemmy.ee, will give that a try I suppose.

            I just can’t fathom why I can’t eliminate .hex from my feed lol

              As a stopgap measure you can use the Connect app, which has instance blocking.

          Lemmy and federation is very buggy. I’m from an instance which hexbear defederated from, but I sometimes still see posts from hexbear when browsing all+new. It seems like it doesn’t always get around to checking defederation when fetching new threads.

        behave like a bunch of 4channers,

        4chan isn’t tankies and 4chan isn’t just /pol/ there are plenty of boards on there that have no equivalent anywhere including reddit or lemmy like /lit/. I bet people on hexbear haven’t even read a book in the last decade.

          I never said anything about political inclinations, it’s the trollish and toxic behaviors that are comparable. You even quote me saying “behave”. Don’t be *a Hexbear please…

          *Thanks for pointing out the typo, dear 6channers, much appreciated :)

              kinda hypocritical no?

              No. Feigning to not understand, or distorting a point is something that Hexbear users love to do. That’s why I asked you to not be like them.

                At this point you are being intellectually dishonest and I don’t see how you can moralize with that kind of meta with responding to people. Goodbye.

          True, the majority of 4chan users definitely seem to lean right, at the very least in a trolling manner, so the comparison isn’t very apt. I honestly just thought 6chan was another chan at first. I know 8chan was a thing.

          Hexbear can be annoying, but the a lot of them are reasonable, it’s just that the obnoxious ones always seem to be the loudest.

            Isn’t that like saying not all cops are bad, the bad cops are just the ones you always hear about. (In the US)

            For sure, pretty much every individual cop I’ve interacted with has been very reasonable. Doesn’t mean the policing system isn’t rotten to the core when it’s protecting the bad cops.

            /lit/ is mostly clean I had made thread there that were 150 comments deep and no insults or slurs. You can also use 4chanx to filter comments too. Lot of stuff on /g/ is good too especially when it gets technical.
