On a related note, r-ChapoDogHouse is the last remaining chapo (in the name) sub that I know of. There was a porm themed one that lasted a while, but it got nuked eventually.

makima-huh

Okay you can call bearsite "woke-scoldy" if you're mad we told you off for supporting imperialism or whatever, but cliquey? Fuck that shit.

As an autistic hexbear, discord servers full of liberal queers are cliquey. Subreddits for dumb interests are cliquey. Hexbear is fucking awesome. Fuck reddit lmao.

[–] Goblinmancer@hexbear.net 35 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I hate discord servers i hate how it replaced wikis for games now so you have to interact with bunch of cliquely assholes to get information. And then your discord server inflate into hundreds which sucks.

gunna scold you wokely for supporting imperialism

[–] fen@hexbear.net 57 points 5 months ago (2 children)

i'm fairly new, and i really don't get the accusations of clique-yness, nor toxicity. this is easily one of the friendliest and most welcoming public communities i've ever been in online

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 45 points 5 months ago

Liberals take psychic damage when they come here, but leftists are fine

[–] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 27 points 5 months ago (5 children)

do not mention veganism and that image will stay

[–] fen@hexbear.net 15 points 5 months ago (1 children)

idk, I went and looked at the vegan comm after seeing this reply, and the most "toxic" thing I saw was vegan folks expressing frustrations with bad takes on their lives from libs in very nuanced (and even sympathetic) ways. these posts from comrade Angel really got me thinking, actually. it just reinforced my view that this is a very friendly and honest place!

i'm not sure if hexbears realize just how bad the actual toxic internet cliques are...

I'm woke-scolding - yes, you should be scolded right now because you're awake and it's well past your bedtime!

Bring back /r/ShitHexbearSays

StrappingYoungVlad, where did you go? Look, I'll even make it easy for you:

October 7th was justified and good, Hamas is good and the legitimate representatives of the Palestinian people and their national liberation struggle from """Israeli""" settler-colonialism, you shouldn't vote for the genocide party (Democrats), anti-cracker racism isn't real but if it was it would be good, unlimited destruction on the first world, political violence is justified, Stalin was 70% good and 30% bad, uhhhh anyone got any others for the screenshot?

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 47 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Stalin was 70% good and 30% bad,

Ok, struggle session, he was actually 75% good and 25% bad.

maddened

Time to double down in the worst and most hostile way and get permabanned from the site

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 26 points 5 months ago

Throwback to that time my mom asked me whether I was a Democrat or a Republican (fishing for approval because her tenant-boyfriend and his kids were pissed off at her for voting for Trump) and I said, verbatim:

"Stalin did nothing wrong. Wait, I take that back: he did one thing wrong -- he died."

Remember: when ending a politics discussion with a CHUD relative, there must be a remembrance of Stalin. stalin-approval

You're either dirt_owls friend or your not, the owl decides who's part of the club. Sadly, dirt_owl said I was stinky and had "farty pants" so I'm not part of the clique.

I'll give you the same advice I give my cat.

It's clicky because I'm typing posts

The thing nobody tells you about hexbear is that you get an extremely loud mechanical keyboard free with membership.

I'm glad xi-pog was able to add it into the international posters budget this year. We were pushing for that for a while.

Fr though, WHAT FUCKING CLIQUES ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT PLS EXPLAIN

It's like no one who talks shit about Hexbear has actually been here. The libs with political disagreements I can at least understand but this just baffles me. I was looking at the lemmitor sphere of Lemmy earlier and all this talk of Hexbear being "toxic" or whatever, like just look around and it's obviously complete bullshit. The trans megathread alone is like 30% love and support by content wtf

I know, I know, this person just wants to say slurs or whatever but still

The normal chapo redditors left for here or discord, course the ones that are left are like that.

what about cliquey and mold-scoldy?

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 23 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Lmao what is this person talking about. Even liberals are welcome here if they engage in good faith and are respectful.

We might boldly tell them their ideas are bad or skewer their sources but that's not rude - this is our space - of course we won't let contrary ideas be disseminated without challenge. As long as they are polite things generally go well. If they ask real questions people will generally be nice and willing to reply.

We can be initially harsh sometimes but the visiting liberal must remember the context: we have years of history of wreckers and assholes coming here with gotcha questions and bad faith. We're a little jaded there. But it's a reflexive self defense and we are vindicated in that vigilance because we are still standing as a safe place to discuss leftist ideals and organizing. We can say we dislike capitalism without having to deal with 30 of the same tired liberal criticisms. Surely they must appreciate how tiring that is even if they disagree with what is being said. Imagine if every time you said "I prefer Coca-Cola" a host of Pepsi Locusts descended to chatter about how wrong you are and piss and shit all over. Exhausting.

And yeah we might be wholly intractable on certain issues but that's because we do have some zero-tolerance rules and they are there for a reason. So no, you can't come in here and ask why it's okay for black people to say the n word and it isn't for white people. Nobody here is going to be defending you for asking it with a quote from Voltaire. It's not happening. Deal with it. It's not a big ask.

The cliquey part is probably true tbh.

[–] PaX@hexbear.net 35 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

I feel like Redditors and Reddit-minded people (lemmitor) mistake having a different "site culture" (for lack of better words) for cliquey-ness

They also have a site culture but it's shit and they can't even tell it exists anymore, it's just normal to them like fish in water

Although idk maybe there's something to be said about power-posters or whatever, but I think that's mainly a result of having a small userbase

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 25 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It's absolutely this, mostly because after only posting pretty much here for 4 years now I can smell the Redditor on people to the point where I am at like a 90% accuracy rate of knowing who is a new account or not on writing style alone. And I'm fine with giving them the benefit of the doubt for posting, but I don't like interacting with them too much.
