I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of 'hitlerites'

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

Hexbear users will bully you to hell the very second you say something they disagree with. In my case, I said South Park is a funny show. They also think Putin is a good guy and at the same time they pretend 90% of their users are trans. Basically it's a bunch of douche kids playing revolutionaries and intimating anyone they disagree with. My 2 cents.

Cis man declares himself the arbiter of trans-ness, only trans people who agree with him politically are valid. (He's an ally okay, don't point out his rampant transphobia or he gets pissy)

Yerbouti is a thin-skinned french canadian who is still bitter to this day that he went to a chapo show and they made fun of french canadians.

I've never seen anybody on hexbear say Putin is a good guy. And it seems pretty transphobic to say that they're just pretending to be trans.

I’ve never seen anybody on hexbear say Putin is a good guy

Well I've seen a lot of user refusing to say he's a authoritarian dictator so it's basically saying he's a good guy.

The same thing goes with refusing to vote Harris: that was basically saying you don't mind letting Epstein's closest friend rule the country because you don't want to vote for a "lib". Good job.

And again, I didn't say people are pretending to be trans, I said I don't trust Internet polls, especially anything that mones from hexbear. It seem hard to understand for you, but it's not the same.

Now here's my question: are you trans yourself? Because if you're not, that would be incredibly transphobic and discriminating from you to pretend you can speak in the name of a minority group. Please reassure me.

Look man, if you're just going to engage in this kind of wildly bad faith behavior, I really don't see any point in continuing to engage.

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree that this is not going anywhere But I'm not speaking in bad faith, I'm sharing observations from interactions I had with Hexbear users. Maybe you should ask yourself why, on a left-leaning website like Lemmy, almost all the instances have chosen to dissociate from Hexbear. Maybe if you believe everyone around you sucks, you're the one that does.

Also, why can you just answer my last question? It's a fair question since every god damn time the hexbear subject is brought, people like you call tranpshobic anyone who dares to criticize it. I will give you much more credibility on the subject if being trans is your reality. BTW, why would you call me "man"? Bold of you to assume that I'm a man.

I love going there and bullying them. Its my fav pass time when they had enough they just delete all my post cause they are malding! They also like to call it their platform which I always correct them on ..

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

To be clear, your posts are largely removed not just from Hexbear but other instances for rampant misogyny and general manosphere talking points, as well as getting into constant fights with other users.

Thank you for your interest in me.
