Recently, many of our anti-Zionists posts have been downvoted to oblivion by liberals. As hexberians realized a while back, downvotes only help liberals since they are more numerous and they don’t need to engage in discourse. I am proposing to just get rid of downvotes and instead engage in discourse on content that we disagree on.
Do we know for sure that the emoji spam on Hexbear is due to the downvote policy? It seems to me like it could also just be explained by accidents of history and community focus/culture.
Following the ban of /r/chapotraphouse, the community spent a bit of time on Discord. After chapo.chat was made, a bunch of custom emojis were made and then we just kinda kept making them.
anyone can submit an emoji for consideration, it’s pretty rad!
