    Anti-vegans know the vegans are right and that trying to justify mass torture and murder of sentient beings is a bad look. They get angry since they can’t justify their cruelty-based treats and want to associate vegans with something bad to try to resolve the cognitive dissonance and shove Hitler into the square hole.

    Same with trying to use Marxism, trans support, and being against car culture as negatives. These are all good things that the ranter has to try to make sound bad to discredit hexbear and show support for chuddery they want the world to descend into.

      lovebombing is a negative thing, but it doesn't apply to here anyway

      we're not trying to steal people from their family/friends or whatever

        Is lovebombing fake love to manipulate people? From context here it sounded like showing extra support for comrades and marginalised people. May have used that incorrectly.

          Yeah, the term lovebombing is used to describe a manipulation technique used mostly by narcissists and cults to draw vulnerable people in.

          They're trying to imply us showing extra support for comrades and marginalised people isn't real and is just cynical manipulation, because we couldn't possibly just love our comrades heart-sickle
