Sure I’m currently high enough I’ll try to explain my thoughts through all of that, although most of it is “I’m kinda dumb”
Why I speak like that, I’m not really sure and it’s not something I love about myself but usually how the posts come out here is how the thoughts are going inside, I mask more in other places, here I tend to write how I think.
Why I thought it wouldn’t cause a struggle session, I think I vastly overestimated the degree to which volcel police was a bit, I thought it was just something we were doing because weirdo right wingers were “incels” and someone someday decided that “volcel” was funny.
I don’t generally think of Hexbear as more puritanical than the rest of the Anglo world I think it’s on the more sexually liberated end of things, which is why when in the past I’ve seen things that go against that I go “Oh wait this exists here too.”
So aside from what I thought was a small minority of users I kinda thought I was gonna be preaching to the choir?
I thought discussion of these ideas as right wingers propaganda by a PhD student researching that topic was something people here might appreciate, and then as I was writing the post I got in a weird mode and let the annoying argumentative side out I guess?
I still stand by most of what I’ve said although I could’ve been less of an asshole about some of it. As far as poisoning the well, the point of the video was that these beliefs come from right wing propaganda, so that’s a problem inherent to talking about this, that’s not just me being an asshole in the comments.
In retrospect should I have known this would’ve caused an argument though? 100%
I think it overall would've been fine if you had phrased the post more as "this is what this phd student says about this topic" rather than the way you phrased it originally, which did come across as more confrontational than you probably intended. That way, it would've just been people arguing about tiktok instead of a full on struggle session.
And fair enough on the "I'm kinda dumb" thing, that's why I only make dumb comments, not posts. I would probably end up causing a struggle session over the dumbest shit possible if I did.
And the volcel thing is overdone, but I would much rather be on a site that actively mocks guys creeping on women and gets them to not do that, rather than a site that tolerates or even encourages that behaviour. Though others have already talked about that at length here.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, good luck with your infiltration of hexbear!
Genuinely I appreciate the advice, as an autistic person (and federal agent of course) it’s not often enough I get to actually have clear feedback on how I could have done an interaction better
Glad I could help! And I'm glad you're taking my jokes with good humour, I wouldn't blame you if you just got mad and hurled insults back at me. I'm very happy we could end up having an actually productive discussion instead of that.
