Yeah, take a shot every time one of us dirty commies denies the existence of Saddam's WMDs. The biggest propaganda machine in history would never lie about it's rivals.
You hexbears are always so angry. I suggest getting a vibrator, it'll help you release some of that tension.
We can vibe and hate America at the same time, actually
Not gonna lie, I love that emote.
"You hexbears are always so angry"
You seem super chill tho. Are the brigaders in your walls?
It's wild that I didn't even mention brigading, but most of the comments from hexbears are defensive about it. It's not brigading to comment on posts on other instances, so stop feeling insecure about it. Especially when there are so many other valid reasons people hate you guys.
Yeah my bad, I mistook you for another idiot.
Of course we are defensive about it! Its a tiring accusation.
Yes so much to hate like analysing news, investigating claims and not tolerating bigots. Gets you big mad.
I was speaking more along the lines of the endless emotes and troll comments. I don't think people have a problem with many of the comments that have actual meat to them, even if they vehemently disagree with what's said, like I often do. The ones posting the same trollface emote fifty times though? That's assnine and annoying. Then those same users complain that nobody wants to "debate" them. That's not debate. It's not even a conversation.
take a step back and notice that those comments are in response to someone else engaging in bad faith behaviour. Hexbear does not have a downvote function, which has fostered a culture of mocking people acting in bad faith. If you do not like people dunking on idiots, then get mad at the idiot
