I saw one of them claiming China was more LGBT friendly than the use the other day and it took me a second to process that they were being completely serious.

After hearing what China did to the Uyghur (sp?) people, this is not surprising at all

I wish they'd just go to China by themselves so we may never hear from them again.

Kbin doesn't have a tankie problem, though?

The guy running Kbin has a reasonable head on his shoulders. I've never seen any problematic folks there. Heck, Kbin is one of the places Beehaw still federates with.

@Dirk

I do kbin mostly and I can't say I've ever seen a single hexbear post or mag (and only a handful of their users) unless it was someone else telling me what hexbear is or complaining about them.

They haven't whitelisted kbin, so you won't see their posts (edit: unless they're made to non-hexbear communities). Only their comments on other instances, and a fair number have blocked them at this point.

If I understand correctly, their posts and comments to communities on other instances will still remain visible to you until your instance specifically blocks them. Hexbear won't talk directly talk to kbin, but will talk to lemm.ee, and lemm.ee will tell kbin about posts and comments that hexbear users have made on lemm.ee's communities.

That’s because they’re not communists. They’re anarchist trolls making fun of everything—including themselves.

I've gotten serious pushback from them for advancing basic anarchist ideas. The prevailing ideology amongst hexbear users is not anarchist.

Well, that is contrary to my experience. Most of them say tear it down and destroy it and then if it survives, fill it with communism. That’s anarchy.

I’ll agree it’s weaker than my ability to identify a communist. So whatever you call them, it’s not communism. It’s just lip service.

Marxism-Leninism/Stalinism fell out from communism and with its purges can be considered anti-communist.

Hmmm. They're not very happy about anarchism either. Accelerationism fits somewhat if one would try to pin it but there's a diverse range of users.

As far as I can tell, they’re contrarian authoritarians. That is, they support strongman dictatorships primarily because doing so shocks the sensibilities of and upsets the people around them. It’s childish nonsense without any rigor.

They’re anarchist trolls

Maybe a few, but there's no reason to think that there's any more than that, let alone a majority. There's no shortage of actual tankies in the world, so why should hexbear be some elaborate ruse?

I'm at the point where I'm more annoyed at the hexbear complainers than the actual hexbear users. The most interaction I've had with Hexbear was through posts complaining about them. Everyone seems to understand that they are trolls but are intent on feeding them.

They are not as big of a problem as some might have you believe.
