Upon being criticised for their support of the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attacks, tankies unsurprisingly double down

throwing a pipe bomb into an art contest

incredibly good and based

This is what happens when you become consumed by hatred. The most insane statements seem entirely reasonable to them, because they are blinded by fear and hate.

Their love towards Islamic extremism is so strange.
- "Leftism" is when a economically right wing authoritarian state opposes America.

Apparently drawing Mohammad is worse than a fucking pipe bomb. Thank God I have the self awareness to browse communities outside of my echo chamber. I wish they did too

"What does this have to do with communism anymore?"

@archomrade@midwest.social I don't think your post worked out too well 🐔

also I want to point out the amazing differences between these communities. See, you're very much, unapologetically, a tankie, but you're fully allowed to comment and even engage in this community despite your farming and attempted framing that this community is extremist.

Now, if we were to do the same, we'd be defederated. Which we were!

Perhaps you should use the liberty this community has to actually ask for our opinions as opposed to fishing for responses. You'll find we're a very diverse community with many different opinions, some are even communists.

I wouldn't be fishing here if I wasn't getting bites, and I wouldn't have thought to dip my hook in the water if I hadn't seen abundant signs of good fishing.

  I have, and I was, and no, I got perma'd. Four different users also attempted to dox me. I know since I was in their private chatrooms during the time. Seeing them get frustrated when they couldn't do it was very entertaining. They even tried image meta-data, the poor things
  And my mask? I don't have a mask. I'm very honest with my views and am willing to share them with anyone who wishes to know.

  You actually believe this?

That is psychotic. They recognize it is wrong, too. They would be screeching in apoplectic rage if a radical opposed to their speech were talking about pipe bombing some sort of IRL Hexbear meme reposting event.

They only say it because they're edgy. They are actually very, very passive, i mean they have to put trigger warnings for adult content--If they can't handle seeing violence, they aren't going to do any of it
- not to shit on content warnings because I appreciate that different people have different things that can be very upsetting to them, but hexbear literally requires warnings on photos of ice cream. or cooked food that could possibly include an animal product even if you can't directly see it or tell the difference. I'm not joking or exaggerating, this caused quite a stir when the admins implemented that policy.

this type of shit is part of what drove me away from hexbear (yeah I know it's embarrassing). many of them have the opinion that being a dick is worthy of corporal or capital punishment. is it dickish to intentionally trash on another culture's beliefs? probably yeah. but does it justify murder? fucking of course not!

you're not alone. There's quite a few users in this community who are former-hexbear and lemmygrad

"Turnabouts fair play" eh? You heard him folks, time to bomb people who take the lord's name in vain inshallah.

This is disgusting! How is it legal for them to host this content?

Free speech and all.
you can try reporting them to authorities if you want
