I’ve been having a number of conversations on Hexchan recently trying to make sense of their politics. The most common instance of their hateful hypocrisy I’ve encountered is this constant assurance that they support trans people while immediately attacking and dog piling and trans people who point out that the situation would be much worse under Trump.

The hexchanners who aren’t actively Russian trolls seem to be little more than useful idiots for conservatives, minimizing the damage they do to vulnerable populations and engaging in high school level pettiness and hate.

    It took me a while to comprehend hexbear and I almost didn’t want to bother because hexbear looks and feels like another 4chan to an outsider; I can understand where they’re coming from.

      Have you been to 4chan? As an idiot who spent an unhealthy ammount of time there, they’re a world apart.
