Why is there a trans flag in the background of this community?
why, is there a transphobe in this community?
What? No, I was just asking out of curiosity. I don't know too much about the community and the whole instance, but from what I understand, hexbear is for people who are fond of communism/socialism and countries like China, Russia, North Korea, etc. It just so happened, that before seeing this post and noticing the background in question, I've seen the news about Russian LGBGQ+ communities switching to more independent social media (e.g. Telegram), because of the crackdown, and there was also that story about the politician who had to change their gender back for similar reasons. And now I am a bit lost, because from what I see here, people in hexbear, lemmygrad, and ml instances tend to support LGBTQ+.
They're not mutually exclusive. The west/USA isn't some bastion of LGBT rights, and using us as a cudgel against the enemies of the empire helps noone.
We're a pretty robust little queer/commie group on independent social media. What does it mean?
are you lgbt yourself?
If you were looking for a country that matches Lemmygrad and hexbears politics the closest it'd probably be Cuba
Not really, no. I'm just interested to see these communities sometimes express support for my country, especially considering its stance on issues that are important here. Again, not trying to criticize or anything, just a very different perspective.
