The last few posts made here, they’ve shown up, made the most inane, idiotic, and pointless comments, upvoted each other in a frenzy of circle jerking, and generally made a pest of themselves.
They’re a nuisance, and add nothing of value to the Lemmy experience.
Regarding the edit, what is their instance actually about, what are their leanings? I haven’t been to visit, and don’t really want to.
They’re anti nato communists and some socialists. I took a geez at their “why does everyone hate our instance thread” and it seems that in their words, since they have been on the platform for 3 years they have a strong instance culture. They are used to fighting and battling trolls so when they see something they don’t like they swarm on it and argue aggressively.
From my opinion its a political community that focuses on pushing extreme left wing views. They are anti western, anti capitalism and anti racism and bigotry. I laughed because one of the reasons they keep giving for being hated is because “they’re always right”.
I think calling them anti capitalism and anti racist is a bit reaching as many of them seem to support the state capitalism of Russia and the CCP. And I have yet to come across a hexbear user that has ever brought up the current genocide of the Uyghur population in China, they’d much rather point fingers at western countries for their issues instead of holding up a mirror to their own beliefs regarding “communism” in its current form in Russia and China.
I was trying to be charitable since I think they would describe themself that way. Their position is not really logical because they are forced to support Russia and China.
Who’s forcing them to support genocidal state capitalists?
I cant tell you why they support them it doesnt make much sense to me. I only saw them say that they were all on the same page about everything which means that users cannot deviate from the pro russia/china stance.
That just means that they are choosing to support state capitalists. Nobody forced them to have such awful beliefs but themselves, because they love authoritarian ideology.
I know they are choosing it. I was trying to point to the fact that to be on that instance you have to have that viewpoint because the above poster said that they wouldnt argue it in good faith and that is why.
Its like if I am on a nazi instance and I argued that Hitler was bad with someone from another instance. the people on that nazi instance would say “wow this guy doesnt even support hitler” when I went back to my home instance and tried to talk or argue with them.
While I definitely agree with the sentiment that they would like to describe themselves that way, but on the other hand no one is forcing them to support those countries. And a sizable portion of those users and supporters seem to be unwilling to have a civil discussion regarding the issues with their “alliances” when brought up by other users.
Being anti NATO, I suspect they’re also on Russia’s side regarding Ukraine? Yeah, fuck em.
They LOVE Putin and the CCP. They’ll dogpile anyone who disagrees.
Euww. Yeah, they can fuck right off.
They’re authoritarians. The communist stuff is just an excuse to worship authoritarian regimes like the CCP.
Tankies. They are pro authoritarian communist or socialist regimes like China and USSR, and anti western liberal capitalist democracies like US and NZ.
They got banned from Reddit and moved to an isolated Lemmy instance long before the rest of Lemmy got big, but decided to experiment with federation fairly recently.
So what’s with the attitude in your other comment? Clearly these people have no plans to engage in good faith.
