Iāve been having a number of conversations on Hexchan recently trying to make sense of their politics. The most common instance of their hateful hypocrisy Iāve encountered is this constant assurance that they support trans people while immediately attacking and dog piling and trans people who point out that the situation would be much worse under Trump.
The hexchanners who arenāt actively Russian trolls seem to be little more than useful idiots for conservatives, minimizing the damage they do to vulnerable populations and engaging in high school level pettiness and hate.
Why do people act like they need to "make sense of our politics?" We're open with our politics and we never shut up about it lol.
We aren't hiding anything about us being communists, anarchists, and other socialists. As much as we have divergent view points in this non-sectarian space, we're pretty cohesive and coherent on the broad strokes.
The Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions. Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.
They're liberals and can't conceive that we're genuine. They interpret all leftist politics as childish or a trick.
All liberals believe liberalism is simply the natural, logical final step of development. They see it as a fundamental truth like gravity. Anyone not subscribing to liberalism must either be confused or an active agent of misinformation.

Instead of a Bible I want a mystical Hexbear Grimoire stored in a cavern beneath a giant oak tree. After descending an inexplicable spiral staircase into the earth itself you find a wise owl, covered in shit, guardian of the ancient Hexbear tome.
Except most of the book would just be various emojis and pictures of pig shit
Given how new I am to Hexbear/Lemmy, I urgently need to acquire this book to understand all the history and lore.
I feel like there are countless incredible tales from Hexbear's past that would lie within.
One of the few things that get to me is when they call us childish. Its like a 200 year long intellectual tradition, but somehow we haven't thought it through and its childish
Liberals have a hard time understanding that two groups of people could have conflicting interests is how I mainly see it. They see conflict as a personal moral failure rather than situations people are sorted into.
Capitalist and worker, colonizers and indigenous people, profit and the environment. To a liberal these aren't fundamentally unsolvable problems based of contradiction, but rather situations that can always be mended through...I don't know, raising awareness. Putting a cute sign in your yard.
