Like it's only so long until a user there posts a dumbass "Kick Tankies out of Lemmy" meme to try and start shit to get us defedded and hexbears take the bait immediately and pile on to tell them what a dumbass they are.

Like as dumb as the "death to NATO" being compared to "death to the people of NATO" stuff was, blahaj and hexbear are the largest queer instances and I quite like taking part in it and their trans communities, idk it's kinda nice to interact with people who don't have the same kind of hexbear brainrot where I see the words "pumpkin spice", "Maoist cult", "Soyfacing PMC radlib" or "rock stacking" and immediately start to go :sus: mentally, it feels refreshing to be able to talk to an incredibly queer positive community that doesn't have the same kind of internet poisoning as all of us. And it seems kind of assholy that some of the users here just don't give a shit and want to post and dunk until we get defedded by every instance, this isn't like lemmy.ca where they were all dicks that none of us liked anyway and were complaining about us doing hate speech against fucking landlords or lemm.ee where almost every time time a user from there pops their head into our threads here they say something racist or transphobic. iirc blahaj.zone was actually the second most requested instance to federate with in the pre federation discussions due to how good of a queer space it was.

Like their first defed thread was a complete embarrassment because there were a load of users there that actually had positive opinions towards us and then they saw the shitshow happening once from the post reaching active and changed to be way against us which tbh, fair enough.

and rightly so.

fuck authoritarianism

Ok, so define it first. Bonus points if you don’t consult the state department.

The UK is currently run by an unelected, unopposed dictatorial tyrant with no mandate. Just something to think about while you try and invent a definition.

fuck hierarchies

How do you intend to organise?

fuck commie cops

I don’t see the People’s Police running protestors over or shooting minorities on the regular.

let’s have a look at your wonderful communist china

social credit system and total surveillance. One wrong word and you’re boned.

the people’s police? You mean like Tianenmen Square?

And what about your wonderful communist utopia of Russia? Raping ukrainian children?

Liberal can't read, knows nothing with extreme confidence.

Go away. We don't have to be nice to you here.

"I uncritically believe all the propaganda the state department shovels in to my little piggie maw, because unquestioning acceptance of everything the US State Department says is the core of Anarchism"

There are many many Anarchist critiques of the behavior of the AES states. Well founded, valid arguments that need to be considered. State Department propaganda is not on that list, and you're an embarrassment to everyone who has fought and died for Anarchist causes.

Our theory is that the tank commander was the guy's son and Tank Man was asking him what he wanted for dinner.

[–] CriticalResist8@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

You know there are actually people living in China, including foreigners, and you can ask them about the "social credit score" right? And they all say they've never heard of it. On Baidu they actually joke about it because westerners think it actually exists. You can even ask them any other question about China you want! You don't have to limit yourself to one topic!

OP explicitly said

Bonus points if you don’t consult the state department

You don't get the bonus points. In fact, you get points deducted.

that makes you no better than them

[–] HornyOnMain@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

pit "we want to kill all Jews, black people, queers, romas, communists, unionists, disabled people, antifascists and Slavs"

hexbear-logo "we want to suppress or kill Nazis so they can't do that"

You: "I can't tell the difference between these two groups, they are exactly the same, if you punch a Nazi that makes you no better than them"

Reality isn’t a superhero movie, if you want to combat systems that oppress people you need to be practical and make sure that the people enforcing the oppressive systems can’t just undermine you and re-establish them, an outcome that has actually happened in places like Chile in the 1970s

no gods, no masters

right, so let’s go build the material conditions for this to be possible!

let’s call this process hmmm socialism, or something
