      Funhouse mirror version but yeah it is pretty similar, never thought about that.

      What similarities are there, other than the users being exceptionally ornery?

      Sounds like someone got bullied for having a bad take and now can’t tell the difference between nazis and queers

        If you enjoy dumb takes and edgy politics it’s for you. I’m not surprised someone from ml is defending hexbear tbh.

        Not to mention your defense is “you got bullied”. Sounds like an awesome place, eh.

          Willing to bet ‘dumb takes’ and ‘edgy politics’ exactly describe the correct moral position in the argument you got bullied over your bad takes. Care to elaborate or just gonna hide in the tall grass of hypotheticals and generalizations?

            I never said I got bullied. That’s you telling everyone your experience.

          For what it’s worth, I am a frequent lurker of hexbear and their users’ newspaper archive is wonderful - every politician is full of it and they know it full well.

      “hexbear is fediverse 4chan!!!”

      has the largest weekly trans megathread in the entire fediverse, a supermajority of non-cishet users, aggressively bans racism, bigotry and transphobia on sight, has hard-coded mandatory pronoun tags

      Lmao okay, sure bud

        4chan has a massive trans community and aggressively racisms and bigotrees on sight. Its the other end of the horseshoe

          Horshoe theory is horseshit, as even NATOpedia will tell you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_theory#Academic_studies_and_criticism

            Ok that’s not really relevant unless you consider the lgbt community on 4chan to not be extremely bigoted or you consider hexbear to be extremely bigoted.

              do you consider hexbear to be extremely bigoted? if so, against who?

                Reactionaries are a protected class.

                No I don’t consider them bigoted hence why I put them on the Otherside of the spectrum
