We have found old comrades and new ones.

Yes the libs outnumber those we find, and yes it is an endless battle. But it's worth it.

I don't personally want to dunk, but it is entertaining watching the dunk. And there's always more for me to learn from my comrades because I am a

Idk, I'm just not built for dunking ig o7 to all of you who've gone through the effort to write big explanations of stuff for passing liberals to see though

Yeah, honestly this is anxiety-inducing for me. I am simply not built for twitter-like endless arguing/dunking. It did bring out a bit of effortposting out of me, but at what cost? Especially since I have to watch out for what I say in case I say something horrifically wrong (because there's libs watching) or when there's a reply notification it could be some 🌐 bozo ready to fight.

I had a feeling this would really mess with the community which had developed here and it did, the thing I used this site for was to be able to hear from people outside the lib/fash echo chambers everywhere else online and now the coziness of that is gone and replaced with a bro troll energy. I don't care who you dunked on or how hard you did it, spreading the word of your great victory over some internet moron just means I get stuck hearing another stupid opinion even if you epically tear it apart, and if I wanted to just read stupid opinions I can do that on or twitter

I've seen 3 libs so far stop and question their assumptions and the systems around them, and then disengage from their debate-broing

have patience!

We'll convert the ones who are able to be saved and the lost causes will segregate themselves by banning and blocking and defeding us while shitting and crying and turning into a corn cob

I just wanted an environment away from the redditification that the rest of the internet has become. Sticking to local instances is kinda helping until one of those fucking goobers comes in with their welll akshully bullshit

Did the Star Trek instance defed or something? I remember seeing their posts at first but haven’t seen them recently.

I’m also still wishing there were more hobbyist instances/communities to interact with, since this has always been a little lacking.

I would be amazed if blahaj doesn't defed you, any instance that defederates lemmygrad is going to defed hexbear eventually imo

I think the novelty of dunking on those losers will wear out around the same time they begin defedding from us. The lib instances are already complaining about us, and barring a firm stance from their admins which will also lead to its own drama, they'll will eventually defed from us. I don't see the current vibe lasting for very long.

I know I shouldn't think of Hexbear as /r/chapotraphouse 2 but we did bring the best-in-class shitposting along with us. Now we also have retrieved the ability to evangelize

Please don't stop we need you

What, are you folks planning on turning off your federation or something? Because if so, please tell your supreme leader that I'd hate to see you go.

I mainly don't want hexbear have a reputation of being annoying and pestilential, instead of funny, welcoming, unwelcoming to bigots, and very far left.

Honest question, do y'all not like hobby communities? I can understand if this venue is purely an outlet for sociopolitical discussion for y'all. But there are a lot of smaller communities now at your fingertips, for quirky hobbies and topical discussion. Ones that'd totally welcome you if you want to take a break from dunking and just want to talk about music, or VHS, or rabbits, or JavaScript.
