        Do you want to be overrun by liberals and Zionists? This is how you get overrun by liberals and Zionists

          Weren’t we federated with lemmy.world for a bit? I don’t remember us being overrun then. Hexbears are more active and stronger posters than lemmy libs, and we agree with each other on the main topics of contention vs libs so we back each other up more than they do. imo we’d need to be outnumbered a lot worse before libs started flooding into this wasp nest

            No they preemptively de-federated before we even connected up. You are thinking of lem.ee or whatever, which is a bit more Reddit normie and we were overrun for quite some time even with mods doing massive purges

              We weren't really overrun, and anyway, most of the people who specifically sought us out to debate bro us have blocked hexbear by now

              Preemptively de-federated as a last resort, might I add. Openly fascist instances got a fair shake, of course.

          foolish of you to assume that Zionism isn't inherently bigoted, and most liberals would also get themselves banned for bigotry or toxicity fairly quickly I suppose

      I cannot fathom being on the internet in 2023 and thinking that leftism means being more liberal. These people are young teens or they live in a different reality consuming American media just completely uncritically

        Political language is so fucked in the US, I've read a ton, went to school in more 'progressive' places in the US, actual leftist family, and it still took me a while to realize how twisted my ideas of words like socialist and liberal were growing up.

    That's a person who probably should just have things explained to them, since they are plainly a liberal in a tiny bubble

    "liberal" and "conservative" presuppose a capitalist framework and because liberals are unwilling or unable to imagine politics outside of a capitalist framework, they are unable to imagine anything to the left of themselves. In their mind it's all MAGAs trying to make them look craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy (also notice the USA being the center of politics... this person is unable to imagine that there are other countries that don't internalize politics as "MAGA" vs. "Not MAGA")

      This is 100% true. And in fact, even me agreeing with your right now is just 4chan-style irony to bewilder people and make sure no one can pin down my position to argue with me. Like any fascist, I spurn words and discussion and only ever operate in bad faith. It's not like any of us on hexbear subscribe to some well-defined set of political beliefs, the main points of which have been articulated since the 19th century, with a huge body of subsequent thought, that anyone on the internet can seek out and read and reach informed conclusions about on their own.
