Hexbear and .ml covering their ears and yelling "lalalalala"

[–] PugJesus@kbin.social 71 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Nah, Hexbear is cheering the genocide on. They're mask-off at this point.

[–] Caradoc879@lemmy.world 40 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Look at lemmy.ml and they're on the verge of calling zelensky himself a nazi.

[–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Accusing a Jew of being a nazi. I don't even know what to say....

[–] Zekas@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

To be fair, it wouldn't be unprecedented .

Not really on the verge, many of them have been justifying the invasion because of neozasim in Ukraine, which is indeed a problem, but Russian born Putinesque neofascism is probably not the cure for it.

Just so you understand, there has never even been neo-Nazism in Ukraine. And there was no "problem"; this problem was artificially spread by Russia.

These guys rose in popularity because they fought against Russian-backed rebel groups better, so in a sense previous comment is right

[–] oce@jlai.lu 2 points 2 years ago

I don't understand how the fact that those neo-Nazis gained popularity in the current war, makes the previous comment, that negates the existence of neo-Nazism in Ukraine, correct.

And they ban you for Calli it a genocide.

Always ridiculous takes from lemmygrad users. I see a lot from kbin as well, but I'm assuming selection bias or something

[–] Martineski@lemmy.dbzer0.com 48 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'm pretty sure they would say that ukraine shouldn't exsist anyway because the US propaganda is taking over them or whatever.

I don't understand, are the people on these servers kremlin bots or are they really that stupid?

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I think they are just trolls. Hexbear has a community called "The Dunk Tank" where they proudly announce when they successfully "dunked" on someone, also known as arguing in bad faith with prejudicial hostility and no will to listen until the other side gives up and leaves. They mark that as a win in their book and applaud to it.

[–] Klear@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

It's like they're completely new to the internet. Who does this anymore?

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

They make it thier whole identity

[–] aport@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hexbear cheers for both Russia and Hamas

America bad, therefore any possible challenge to American hegemony good, even if it's literal fascists.
