We can be radicalized

Granted I only used sh.itjust.sucks because it was the first instance recommended to me. However, it was during the brief time when hexbear was a boogeyman to all that I was exposed to true leftist thought. It took about a month or two of reading yogthuos memes before I read theory

Anyway I thought I'd give a hopepost, I genuinely was a turbolib

turbolib to lib pipeline confirmed

(this is an in-joke where hexbears call themselves libs btw, not directed at OP)

[–] nohaybanda@hexbear.net 19 points 6 months ago (2 children)

We call each other libs, not ourselves. Which is a remarkably accurate heuristic, seeing as I’m the one true leftist here

And this is why I (almost) always oppose defederating other instances. Welcome!

[–] Kumikommunism@hexbear.net 22 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh for me me it's just so I can call libs morons when they wander in here instead of going out and getting banned for doing it.

(just kidding, I agree)

We look now to the example set by Sharkfucker 420 on how to be better people

By fucking sharks

You wouldn't believe how I got my name

I oppose all defederation except where opposing admins have blatantly been racist/homophobic or protected racists/homophobes in their teams.

Unfortunately that means SJW is always gonna be a "keep it defederated" from me. Just the acronym alone should tell you what that hellhole stands for.

BUT, right wingers are radicalisable. A lot of people that have fallen into that rightwing pipeline genuinely are just ignorant. We have a lot of people who have been rehabilitated from the far right pipelines. I will always engage with people that seek to engage in good faith.

Sometimes it takes a little while for them to open up to that kind of engagement though. Like you said, a few months of engaging with memes before finally trying to learn properly.

I fell into the youtube antifeminist mysognist pipeline as a kid, I grew out of it pretty fast thankfully but I definitely hurt some people with my words in those times. I've worked to make it up to them where I can but it fucks with my head pretty often. I was still very liberal after I grew out of it but not bigoted (as much as a liberal can be). Shockingly it was actually reddit that pulled me out of that pipeline; after I realized I was bi I sought out queer communities on reddit (which I had only just downloaded like a month before this) and found 196 which was pretty far "left" for me at the time. Then I used lemmy and found hexbear. Fuck I really have been raised by the internet, dammit.

I was gonna go somewhere with that but I am high and lost my train of thought. Basically I'm glad y'all exist and post as much as y'all do, genuinely helped me grow as a person.

genuinely helped me grow as a person.

Hexbear as a haven and rehabilitation of problem childs is a good bit

I am glad that you found your way comrade. One piece of advice, never stop learning. Never feel "finished".

I too have questioned my gender, still haven't really figured it out tbh

This seems to be a trend I've noticed

I cant use them because I use jerboa so I save them onto my phone directly and post them as images. Looks the same to me on the app. What's it looks like to you? I didn't realize people could tell

Was a lemm.ee user. Still don't like the defederations tbh cuz we're missing out on alot of potential leftists. Libs can be radicalized.

Deprogram is better don't go on chapo it's kinda just dirtbags being vaguely left and/or socdem tbh. They're funny occasionally? Acquired taste imo.

why has nobody asked what yogthuos memes are yet. am I the only one that doesn't know what yogthuos is kitty-cri-screm

[–] nohaybanda@hexbear.net 26 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Yog is a prolific poster from lemmygrad. Comrade makes some banger memes and links a ton of news stories. I think there’s like a couple of his posts on our front page right now

Also, I wanted to ask, is it not possible to change your display name on hexbear? I tried to do it a few times and throguh jerboa and it would change back, I also tried to do it through browser and just couldn't click on the displayname box

A man can build a bridge and they don't call him Bridgemaker420, he can fight a war but they don't call him Warfighter420

But you fuck one shark
