Y’all remember that meme about leftists caring about human rights issues and tankies countering that with nothing other than “that’s CIA propaganda”? Well, someone reposted it in the hexbear slop comm. All I commented was “ITT: Insults, putdowns and whataboutisms”. Well, now I’m banned from a whole range of Hexbear comms permanently. Reason:

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Lol.

    They’re championing social liberty in the same way that teenage atheists champion humanist enlightenment. I can confirm that your irl communist group, full of functional folks who recognize and understand how to interact with people through more than quips and insults, is unlike hexbear. But be aware of where the flock cameras point. The US is doing a McCarthyist revival
