My handlers are asking me to tell you not to link/tag the comment or post, to prevent accusations of brigading obviously, but there have been a ton that should be added as new taglines for the site.
The one that prompted this post:
I’m fine with interacting with people of different ideologies and cultures, but I feel like the hexbears mostly just want to harass us “tankies”.
Huh? Do you mean “liberals”? Hexbears are the ones liberals and leftcoms call “tankies”
From what I can tell, which so far is decidedly little, everyone is calling everyone tankies.
Is it narcissistic to post my own?
Lib: Basically, every thing wrong with the ccp, every evil, is just western propaganda. They deny the Ughur genocide, tiananmen square, they deny everything and call it western propaganda.
Me: Wow, they really deny that stuff? Do you have any good sources I can throw at them next time I see that?
Lib: Nothing really, they just call it western propoganda. Theres no point.
Me: Maybe some would listen if we showed them strong enough evidence, I mean all that stuff is pretty well documented, right? Aren’t there like, pictures or something? At the very least, if we force them to deny strong, reputable sources, it’d make the pitch to defederate stronger.
Lib: It is well documented, they have been shown sources, and they do not care. I really hope they defed from hexbear soon.
Me: I know, I’m just asking you to share them with me so I can use them too next time.
Please bro there are sources bro you gotta believe me bro
I have a source but she goes to a different school in Canada you wouldn’t know her
Could you include usernames so it’s easier to follow along?
I edited it, does that work?
yes, thank you! although, you could have just put the Lib: and Me: into the quotes too if you wanted to keep the quotes so like
That one had me laughing like a maniac on my break at work
I love that they followed up with a “uh yeah I figured out you were trolling” and then provided WIKIPEDIA as the only source
That was actually another Hexbear playing along with the bit
No the user you interacted with literally did the bit unironically later
Omg I totally missed that, but that means the other guy called it, that’s amazing
It makes the whole thing even funnier
Definitely not narcissistic that was a good bit,
and not just because it happened in the thread of my comment
