What's a hex bear?

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 1 points 5 minutes ago

Hexbear, along with .ml and grad, are Tankie instances. Known as the Tankie Triad (well soon to be Tankie Dyad anyways lol)

Communists (internet troll-ish)

As opposed to Communists (just-- communists) from lemmy.ml and Communists (Spicy Communists) from lemmygrad.ml

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 0 points 5 minutes ago (1 children)

None of them are communists, they're Tankies, tankies = authoritarians

[–] VinesNFluff@pawb.social 1 points 1 minute ago

I think saying Tankies aren't Communists is a bit like saying Sword Art Online isn't an anime.

Just because they suck doesn't remove them from the category. In fact acknowledging the sucky parts of a is part of being grown up about that thing.

Well yea but what is it in this specific context? I have no idea what this is

[–] Allero@lemmy.today -2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

A far-left Lemmy instance, one of the so-called "Tankie Triad" (along with lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml). Compared to other instances of the Triad, focuses more on inclusivity and minority rights.

As with all instances of the Triad, Hexbear is commonly hated on other instances due to conflicts stemming from the difference of political perspectives with the majority of people on other instances.

Pedobear with extra steps

[–] spicy_mango@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

That doesn't really clear anything up, tbh, I don't know what this is or why I care about their domain expiring this post did nothing to explain that

[–] vxx@lemmy.world -2 points 1 hour ago

That's not what you asked
