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,

KenBonesWildRide

        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 mean. Yeah you're probably right. But showing the redditors that who weren't around for the CTH ban seems valuable at least.

                    Do everything to expose it. And that's not even because I want to agitate, it's just something that comes with acting in good faith if they do not. So I may as well TRY.

              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.

      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

    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.

          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!"
