I mean I'll be voting for Biden mainly because Trump's a dictator wannabe (you guys like that right?) and Biden has sorta done an okay job supporting Ukraine with military aid, which I also support. Abortion is on the ballot in my state so I will be voting to support that as well.
Yeah bro everyone here loves Trump.
I think you're joking but I honestly have no idea what you folks are saying 68% of the time
Love to be proud of my ignorance. What a fucking dumbass.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ you all just use lingo, jokes, and references I don't understand, I'm not proud to be ignorant but ok
Then educate yourself.
Oh no! Has the niche online webforum cultivated a unique culture? Egads!
Go back to reddit
Lol well me interacting here is partially because I find hexbear interesting and I want to know more. I deleted my reddit account the day they disabled 3rd party apps :'(. I like Lemmy
If you really felt this way you could try, I dunno, asking fucking questions?
Waltzing into a leftist space and flaunting how politically illiterate you are while being inflammatory and without asking earnest questions is such a ridiculous move to make and then complain when people got mad
If you liked it here or were interested then you'd exhibit a better attitude, fuck you and your condescension.
I didn't say I liked hexbear, I like Lemmy. I know it was originally made by communists or whatever but sadly for y'all it's grown well beyond that origin story.
You are on here, so I would assume your "I like lemmy" comment encompasses the instance you're currently on. Otherwise why bother?
Well once you scroll for a while on Lemmy past all the higher like count posts it's mostly hexbear and porn on my feed, so ya I interact here on occasion because y'all are interesting and amusing.
You should check out c/porn its probably our best sub!
Lmao, okay
You are absolutely proud of your ignorance.
Ah fuck, you got us. Superb dunk.
How can it be that you guys are all writing the same tired dogbrained cardboard cutout milquetoast shit, yet you all think you're somehow the first to do it? How can you be this much of a basicass lib and still think you have any unique or new thoughts to share? At least try, please. Spend like 20 minutes of effort learning what the viewpoint you're critiqueing is, your dunks would be so much better. You guys never do though, and why? Are you afraid you might learn something?
You support a fascist coup regime
You support genocide
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don't believe Ukraine is a fascist coup regime, in fact I think that's a better description of Russia except the coup part, Putin just has total control anyway.
Either way since you seem to support Russia I will just state how much I love seeing the significant material and personnel loss Russia is suffering in the invasion. It is astonishing how significantly Ukraine has degraded their capabilities and displaced their status as one of the best armies in the world, and I honestly cannot wait to see what Ukraine does next.
I don't know what my favorite part is, Ukraine destroying/disabling Russia's entire black sea fleet (they are too scared to use their remaining ships since they have lost so many) or that Ukraine has removed 10% (maybe up to 15% so far https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukraine-strikes-may-have-hit-15-russian-refinery-capacity-nato-official-2024-04-04/) of Russia's refinery capacity with drone strikes, and that number will continue to grow.
Lmao "concerned" about genocide and cheering on fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian child. Fuck you for being excited about war.
I doubt you will since you probably dislike me but check out the song Vicarious by Tool, read the lyrics.
It's funny you highlight Ukraine's losses when Russia's are significantly higher. Ukraine gets to fight for their land as long as Ukraine wants to, you don't get to say "oh think of the Ukrainian children" like you care for them.
We care more than you, you deranged monster
The only thing a Ukrainian child is good to you for is cannon fodder in your insane war against Russia which for you has nothing to do with Russia as a country and everything to with your conspiracy theories about the 2016 election that you still haven't gotten over
Lmao, it's funny you call Ukrainians Nazis. Did you see how Russian security services cut the ear off one of the suspects from the terrorist attack in Russia, forced the ear into the man's mouth, then took a selfie with the knife he used to remove the ear next to his Nazi patch on his arm. The dude then proceeded to auction the knife off.
Every country has Nazis, Russia certainly has significantly more than Ukraine.
Woof. Buddy. If we've built any rapport, you and I, I'd like to cash it in here. Please, for me, spend some time and energy trying to back up this specific claim, that Russia has more actual Nazis than Ukraine. I don't think this is true, but if you, who I've had positive interactions with, can come up with some evidence for its truth, I'll consider it, truly. For real, I'm not doing propaganda, I'm not trying to lead you into a trap, I'm asking you to please, spend some time looking into this claim to see if you actually agree with it upon closer inspection. And if you do, well then I promise I'll truly think about the evidence you present, I'll come at it with no preconceived notions, honestly believing that my friend Zetta might be correct.
This "every country has Nazis" point is an extreme cop-out. It's technically true, but it minimizes the extent that Nazism plays a role in the Ukrainian government and nation, and downplays the prevalence of Nazism.

As for the problem of Nazism in general society, it's not comparable to the average in other nations. I'll specifically use Western sources for this to avoid claims of "Russian propaganda":

You've misunderstood that song. You're not one of the angels on the sidelines, you're no angel.
You misunderstood the song, the point of the song is that everyone feeds on someone else's misfortune. Humans have an intrinsic need for violence and horror, just watch the news and that's all that they have on because that's what people want to see.
The very first line in the song is more inline with how I feel it relates to me and all other humans "Eye on the TV, 'cause tragedy thrills me"
The only lyric that mentions angels is mocking people for believing mankind intrinsically has a good heart.
"Credulous at best, your desire to believe in Angels in the hearts of men Pull your head on out your hippy haze and give a listen"
Actually I just realized I was thinking of Right In Two
Regardless, you've just confirmed that you are disgusting. No, I do not take any thrills from watching the slaughter in Ukraine. You've told on yourself.

do you have a source for this?
Who gives a shit what you believe. Educate yourself before you open your mouth.
The current government of Ukraine was literally installed via a coup in 2014. Do you not know your history? The US government hand-picked their stooges to run the place, a conversation between then assistant secretary of state victoria nuland and some other ghoul was leaked confirming this very thing https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-2607995
Why do you think both Trump and Bidens corruption scandals were embroiled in Ukraine?
Do not speak on things you do not know of. History didn't start on October 7th nor did it start at the invasion of ukraine.
The fact that you try to make this about Russia is only worse, you're employing a poor rhetorical trick to misdirect the conversation to one of moral value with no relation to material analysis. No one here supports Russia, this a LGBTQ safe space you fucking idiot. We're just not blind dogs for the US empire, uncritically cheering as hundreds of thousands are pointlessly thrown into a meatgrinder in order to sustain the imperialist west for a few meagre seasons more.
Instead of trying for yet another poor dunk, try to employ your empathy or curiosity and consider (and then INVESTIGATE GODDAMMIT) why we might believe what we believe. You're a fucking idiot if you think we're cheering for Putin. Learn what critical support entails and learn why people argue that it is better NATO loses instead of Russia.
Well I do appreciate some of the insight in this comment, I was under the impression hexbear supported Russia and I was confused about that given the state of LGBT rights there. I even considered making a post here asking that exact question!
I'll do some more reading on Ukraine's current government but doubt my overall opinion on supporting them will change.
Go check out the hexbear news mega
lol i literally told them to do the same thing, i hope they do cuz i think they'd really find it interesting
I'll check it out when I'm home later today
You're disgusting
Reality is not a Marvel movie, you bloodthirsty piece of shit. An entire generation of people is being slaughtered on both sides of this war and your reaction is that you love seeing the "personnel loss" which is just a liberal way of saying murdered people. This is why we hate liberals, you view human misery as entertainment.

Fuck Trump.
Of course you would support continuing the wars, it's your favorite past-time, liberal. You claim people don't care about foreign policy, and yet here you are, making a vote based on foreign policy.
Yeah, yeah, we know what you care about.
My understanding of what a liberal is is just the first paragraph on Wikipedia and I assume that's not exactly what you think of as a liberal? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism
I'm not sure what I am politically, I've never given it much thought. I just vote based on who's available to vote for and what they support specifically.
On here we use global definition of liberal. This mean that they support private property, capitalism, current world system, and the bourgeois rule. They can want anything from the strict austerity to the social democracy. Liberalism is the official ideology of the United States Constitution. Every politician in the United States is a liberal. Two party system do not allow anyone who is not a liberal to run.
Genuinely insightful, thanks
I also don't really know what a tankie is
What's a tankie? Why are you talking to me about tanks?
Truly honestly not doing a bit
Amazing. Send me your skull measurements.
Definitely, unlike you who loves freedom and democracy, we hate all people and think they should be lorded over by an unaccountable dictator who society has no influence on the decision of, no matter how unpopular that person is, we just want to force them through!
Wait that's Biden
If Trumps such an evil fascist why didn't he go full Hitler in his first term?
Why wouldn't he just eat McDonalds and watch Fox all day in his second term like he did his first?
