HexBear is a leftist forum but the HexBear philosophy has always been to fight fire with fire. This works incredibly well against Right Wing Posters since everyone knows they are being assholes. This doesn’t work with Liberals since Liberals don’t think of themselves being offensive. The idea that HexBears are preaching Kremlin ideas, ideology or any of those ideas is incredibly offensive. It is pretty much saying, you can’t think for yourself. HexBear is capable of having respectful conversations but it really requires growth from both sides. HexBear needs to practice greater patience and Liberal posters really need to think about the implicit meaning of their words.
