I see all over Lemmy, people really seem to hate hexbear, and I don't get it. Can someone explain why most of Lemmy seems to absolutely hate them?

    We're leftists and our site culture is pretty aggressive. Liberals are predisposed not to like us because of the first one, and we're especially prone to arguing with them in the comments of their instances because of the second. This means we're more well known and more disliked than we would be if we stayed in our corner.

      Certainly, a portion of r/cth's appeal was that it was openly left and didn't follow liberal rules of politeness, respect, or decorum
