We haven’t coordinated anything with the mods from there and they are squarely focusing on getting people into the lifeboat over at https://lemmygrad.ml/c/GenZedong. However, you are more than welcome to hang around. A lot of us have accounts for Lemmy as well as Hexbear since Hexbear does not yet federate with Lemmy (although that project is under way).
An importance difference in site cultures to keep in mind is that we don’t allow sectarianism. If you want to dunk on anarchists, you need to take that elsewhere (or just refrain since anarchists are comrades too). If you want to dunk on liberals, !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net is full of all the cringy Twitter screenshots your heart could ever desire. We also have !memes@hexbear.net, !chapotraphouse@hexbear.net, and !sino@hexbear.net, which should have some overlap with /r/GZD. Our !genzedong@hexbear.net comm was also recently unlocked by one of your moderators.
Happy lurking; Furious posting,

I'm a tankie in the streets and an anarchist in the sheets
a company of tanks rolls down a city street.
the tanks are all modular, open source hardware. they operate almost exclusively with short-range radio. there is no commander amongst them that can be knocked out. they are COVERED in graffiti. much of the graffiti is weird references to bees and ants. the tanks are constantly smashing storefront windows. most of the cabins smell like cannabis. the tank engines double as generators and as big stoves for Food Not Bombs. each tank includes a ready-made node for a mesh network. the tanks are constantly smashing storefront windows. often the tanks circle up immediately after engagements while crew engage in tekmîl groups.
:meow-tankie: :meow-tankie: :meow-tankie: :meow-tankie: :meow-tankie: :meow-tankie:
I've been feeling more at home here as an anarchist recently, there's been less invasion cheer-leading than there would have been at this site's inception I think,
:technical: :technical: :technical: :technical: :technical: :technical: :leslie-shining:
what if we chazzed up all the cops simultaneously everywhere all at once :soviet-bashful:
oh lmao, you thought you were in the thread about the airport?
so did I :cool-bean:
I get around. If I had more time in a day I would be everywhere. I've been very focused on GaP recently but swap between it and TRCM too, Hexbear is home though, spend a lot of time here.
I was brought onto the genzedong team literally yesterday to help with not getting it banned... HAHA. :deeper-sadness:
Maybe you can still prevent the ban since it's just a quarantine. Though getting un quarantined will be almost impossible
I don't know if I can. Admins are literally not responding to any of my messages about it proposing solutions.
I want to believe and give them every chance to show me that they want a constructive relationship with the left. I genuinely want to believe that it's possible and I give them every opportunity to demonstrate that they're just administering their site in good-faith. But their actions suggest otherwise.
Trying for the best. Preparing for the worst.
I want to believe and give them every chance to show me that they want a constructive relationship with the left.
straight up doing the :wall-talk:
Also most importantly. This site is hentai free. Looking for it? Leave :hentai-free:
NO HORNY :spray-bottle:
Yeah, you've got the entire rest of the internet for that
We will curtail the horny menace, wherever it may appear :volcel-judge:
Don't forget to tell them they can say death to america and cracker here all they want. :amerikkka:
And murder all billionaires
Just not specific ones :deeper-sadness:
no no just not specific plans to murder ones
:geordi-yes: “I want to kill Jeff Bezos inshallah”
:geordi-no: {writing a detailed zodiac killer letter with location, date, time, blah blah blah.}
I have a specific plan to get them to murder each other. Basically, we set up some area of wilderness to put them in, call it Galt’s Gulch for the delicious irony, then watch from afar as they resort to murder and cannibalism to survive.
We can also link to https://www.mintpressnews.com/jessica-ashooh-reddit-national-security-state-plant/277639/ as much as we like
Came for the chapo lifeboat, stayed for the emotes :sankara-shining:
Came for the not the discord, stayed for the not the discord
I've heard small ones with irl friends are nice tho if you've got em
Yeah I actually use discord for my friends group chat, we used to use Facebook messenger but switched because discord is actually a really good platform for group chats and fb messenger sucks ass
Plus it has custom emotes, so I’ve brought some over from here like :amerikkka: :ukkk: :kkkanada: :stalin-smokin: and :what-the-hell:
Twitter libs aping anarchist lingo (read: just libs) are also free game and are probably who your ire is against anyways
Yep. My experiences with anarchists (outside of hexbear :ancom-heart:) on the internet: generally awful radlib shit. My experiences with irl anarchists: some of the coolest and nicest people I've ever met doing more mutual aid than I could dream of. There is a tremendous world of difference between the two
Posing as "anarchists", and sowing division is one of the key tenets of cointel pro if i remember correctly.
Speaking of, please keep V*ush posting to a minimum, and only in /c/dunktank :funny-clown-hammer:
Yes please keep the v**sh-posting to a minimum. and keep those in the dunk tank with the other shitlibs
If you want to dunk on anarchists, you need to take that elsewhere
Speaking for myself, if you want to dunk on something, be specific. Anybody can call themselves an Anarchist and spread shitty ideas. Anybody can call themselves an anti-imperialist and spread shitty ideas. Anybody can call themselves a Marxist and spread shitty ideas. Don't make up a person to be mad at online. Cite specific public figures and specific literature and explain what you think they are getting wrong.
Those people you were mad at on Reddit? They're still on Reddit. We take pride in keeping a lot of that shit out of here. Here, we are comrades in a common struggle. We have c/strugglesession for GOOD FAITH debate and critique. At the end of the day though, anybody who seeks to rid the world of capitalism, has an open mind, and is ready to adapt to the circumstances of the struggle is a comrade of mine.
The world is a fuck, and you will all be humbled.
I remember it really sucking when chapo got banned, but this place, started from nothing, has become so much more enjoyable and educational to me. Not having to use the hellsite and immerse myself in liberal :brainworms: has been such a boon to my sense of sanity. So hello new comrades, welcome. We sympathize with your situation and are stoked to have you here in our tucked-away digital dive bar. Its the friendliest place around.
:a-little-trolling: GenZedong folks, we love our GenZedong. It’s said they were named after Mao Zedong. He was a good leader, very powerful, very strong. And they say GenZedong is very powerful too. Not as powerful as me, of course, but very powerful, very powerful. But reddit, reddit was very mean to GenZedong, very nasty. And from what I hear the Chairman is pretty upset. But we love our brave posters, they are beautiful people, and we welcome them with open hearts, and open arms.
Welcome! But please understand this place is not reddit and it has an existing culture, please don't come in and start smashing shit ty <3
We’re going to also get the same two or three losers pretending to be new and trying to wreck lol
edit: lmao just saw one. I’ll tag them.
remember newcomers, hexbear is a PRO pumpkin spice forum
PSERFs not welcome
I really hope this posts brings us a blessed visit from sexist nazi fred flintstone. He always seems like a very normal and well-adjusted person.
He wishes he could be half as cool as Fred Flintstone from the DC comic book
:sicko-hyper: hell yeah it is!
When are we getting a pumpkin spice sicko emoji?
:sicko-yes: :PSL:
also fwiw i made some fred flintstone angry about pumpkin spice lattes art back when we were getting our ai slaves in the art mines to do that
it feels that that there are more commenters here welcoming the newcomers than actual newcomers, which seems somewhat awkward to me :shrug-outta-hecks:
That's because we're not welcoming them enough THEY FEEL SHY SO SPEAK UP AND MAKE THEM FEEL WELCOME THE POSTING WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES
LOUDER FOR THE KIDS IN THE BACK! WELCOME YOUNG COMRADES! HEXBEAR IS GRATEFUL FOR YOUR PRESENCE
alright everyone let's go in a circle and say our names, pronouns, and one fun fact about ourselves,
I imagine this thread will stay pinned for a while, its supposed to be filled with welcome messages!
Alright, I warned you :frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext::frog-no-pretext:
Yes please. We welcome all comrades but please keep your sectarianism against other leftist tendencies away from Hexbear.
I spend time with people that unironically think succdems are a socialist tendency that must be respected. Like that Bernie and the Nordic model are socialism, lol.
The dunks on libs must flow.
social fascists love to steal things from the left and say they came up with it. Like how they're mourning the death of the ghoul that said it's perfectly good and normal that half a million iraqi children died of the sanctions by saying "Rest in Power GIRLBOSS!"
If you're new from r/genzdong you have to laugh when I say I farted. You have to
Welcome comrades!
I've never used the genzedong subreddit, but I know we
stealshare half our content from there so yeah hi!
