The biggest surprise for me was the https://hexbear.net count, an instance I hardly interact with.

Can you truly say you've had the HB experience if you haven't recieved emoji/sticker/gif spam from people who weren't alive for 9/11, have never been outside their country, and refuse to listen to opposing views, but know with full certainty that all western countries are 100% full of genociders and colonial rapists who all deserve the glorious death the super benign, extremely peaceful and misunderstood countries of North Korea, China, and Russia who have never once been correctly accused of human rights violations....

And of course, if they point out that your country has dipped into those things in the past, well your entire worldview is shattered and their whataboutism has solved everything and proves you deserve the death they crave for you.

I am genuinely sad for HB. There are lgbt ppl there, generally dear to me. Seeing them enjoy such cesspit lured in by cultish atmosphere, supporting the very forces that can only destroy but not build anything. It is personal.

[-] Diva@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 months ago

There's actually a lot of lgbt people there, based on their last poll:

you should come post in our extremely active weekly trans megathreads, you'll see that a lot of your preconceived notions are simply not true.

It's uncanny, so many times when I run into a commenter with a specific axe to grind about hexbear, they got already banned for something weird, in this case 2 days prior

[-] Fidel_Cashflow@lemmy.ml -1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

ah, in that case, maybe she should stay far far away from the trans mega :)

I can see why folk don't like hexbear as they come off as leftist 4chan, but you don't need to make things up. They often talk about traveling. I agree with a lot of their content and disagree with some, I've been to 10 countries. In the plane to France, an African told me how their country is still enslaved to France. Personally I don't see the value in the immediate destruction of the west, but with their leaderships ardent support for Nazi Germany, Apartheid, the Climate Crisis and assassination of climate activists, others, and now Zionism, they should lose influence through any means necessary.

come off as leftist 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

make it make sense

[-] joyhunter@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago

Didn't mean it literally, only that it's so shitposty that it can overshadow most serious conversations. It is a far better moderated and accepting community. It's mainly their trans posts that made me better accept trans individuals. And I discourage writing them off like most should with 4chan.

On the flipside there is the .World experience. Where Julian Assagne is a war criminal. And the destruction of Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan was good because it killed a lot of Muslims and liberated those savage hijab wearing women from being alive.

Would you have link to such statements? Seems wild

[-] Transporter_Room_3@startrek.website 15 points 3 months ago

Yeah, I've never once seen anything but criticism over the US's involvement in the middle east.

The most I've seen is a couple people saying the equivalent of "well SOMEONE had to do something about X" And a bunch of others jumping on them to clarify that X either never existed, or was massively exaggerated and the US isn't the World Police.

Genuinely would love to see someone link a good faith comment trying to argue the above, so I can tell them all about how they're a fucknut
