        people post shit like this then are constantly like 'damn, why is hexbear so white?'. I'm not even an astrology person or w/e, but I am a Muslim who has spent more than enough time around progressive Muslims to know this is why they don't wanna hang out with you. the rationalism wankery does not do the left any favours. and before you come in with m-m-muh materialism, you can be a materialist in terms of economics and sociology and all that without also needing to never have any faith or some such thing.

        I don't believe tou must agree with me, faith is something personal. what I do ask, and what many others ask who are spiritual comrades, is that you stop sounding like a 14 year old who just worked out the Catholic church might be kinda bad

          HexBear is white because it’s an obscure leftist Internet forum formed by reddit refugees. I don’t think black people are turned off by the fact some users find astrology cringe, I think they hardly ever stumble on this backwater in the first place.
