What annoys me is not libs disliking us, or disagreeing with us about who the true LEFTIST is, or crying because they got banned.
It's just the sheer, utter disinformation where it's objectively demonstrable that they just make up shit about us and then all believe it. Still in .world, despite being corrected many times, the majority of users will say Hexbears did mass downvoting, when that's literally impossible.
They'll say we love Putin, and Trump. And that we're all fascists - even if you believed dumbdumb horseshoe theory, a fair portion of us aren't even close to authoritarian. That we're largely Chinese shills and bots. That we deliberately organise RAIDS on other instances and aren't just a big community group who like to share our personal experiences on other threads and we like to come to each other's aid. That we're a place of HATE when this place, of all sizeable internet communities, has one of the biggest cultures of love and mutual aid I've ever seen.
I get the political disagreements. I get the disagreement on conversational tone. What I don't get is the sheer determination to not even understand us in the slightest way, to take the most random bullshit, even when it is factually impossible, and take it at face value; all just so they don't have to acknowledge us as real people. That's what upsets me.
Now I made myself sad >:( I love y'all comrades
Reminded of how Hitler had documents forged implicating his enemies prior to the night of the long knives, and then getting angrier and angrier when he read them.
It's why right-wingers can't write satire---they get too mad at their own fiction.
That's hilarious, can you point me at an article about it? I'm being genuine, I can't find one and I really want to read more about it.
I would also like to read about this.
the liberal posters are a paper tiger. the true revolutionaries will be found among the offline masses and the normies.
It's kind of hilarious that it mirrors how the west treats communist countries
Is it not possible for hexbears to downvote on federated servers? I knew it was disabled on local comms.
Even viewing posts from other instances through Hexbear (for instance https://hexbear.net/post/2105999) will have the downvote button disabled. On the flipside downvoting Hexbear posts from other instances does nothing, we don't see nor count downvotes. So if a comment gets hit by libs and sits at 10 upvotes 50 downvotes, we would just see that as +10.
We actually can be down voted and it affects how our posts are ranked on other instances, it's just that we can't see the downvotes on our end
