The rhetoric and goal of Hexbar are clear based on their announcement: to “dismantle western propaganda” and "demolish organizations such as NATO” shows that Hexbar has no intention of "respecting the rules of the community instance in which they are posting/commenting.” It’s to push their beliefs and ideology.

several concerning statements, as highlighted below:

lmao telling on themselves.

I hope they purge academics from their website, too, as both academics as well as non Westerners tend to resist western propaganda somewhat.

lol, people there threw a massive hissy fit when I criticized them for being federated with Nazi and lolicon instances, yet whining about the tankies instead. Now they've finally defederated from exploding-heads after realizing that maybe these Nazis are Nazis, while Hexbear gets pre-eminently blocked because of this statement full of spurious reasoning.

defederating from nazi instance: takes forever

defederating from socialist instance: does it before federation even starts

"Creating those kind of fringe echo-chamer instances is how we end up with toxic and extreme groups like SRS"

This lib-ass cracker redditor with 48 updoots is still crying about SRS data-laughing rent free brd

SRS did a massive amount of good on that shithole website. Before SRS it had jailbait, a hundred different pedo subreddits, and gamers still said "haha get raped!" when they killed opponents. It had a significant impact on site culture.

This dumbass obviously opposes the positive changes it brought about though.

Finding SRS was probably my first step towards radicalization, now that I think about it. I very quickly went from "what is wrong with these people?" to "what is wrong with everyone else on this site?"

Not online enough to know what SRS stands for? Enlighten me?

It was the original boogeyman of reddit, SRS stood for shit reddit says and all it did was basically link to racist/sexist/lgbt-phobic posts on other subreddits and people would make fun of the redditor in the comments. This mocking would break their psyche and was an unforgivable sin to all the fragile redditors and they would regularly come into SRS to argue and get mocked even harder. It had a similar vibe to r/chapotraphouse long before that existed but with less of an explicit leftist slant because reddit-logo was just that horrible, even libs could dunk on how shitty they were. It's hilarious that even though its basically a ghost town now this guy is still clutching his pearls about it all these years later.
