Even with their thousands of users, the libs can't even harness a fraction of our power

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

do you accept himbos and bimbos
I migrated from Lemmy.world just so I can upvote communists bullying liberals lmao
is praxis.
I'm thinking about making a alternate on another instance so I can go downvote libs.
Are downvotes disabled at Hexbear?
No, they're just bigger and don't get counted 
yep, we didn't like drive by downvotes from lurkers. everyone must post.

We don't have downvotes, so we respond.
Lemmy is much more fun since Hexbear joined, leaving lemmy.world is the best decision I made since I came to the fediverse.
Libs don't know what having fun means. Everything is constantly assumed to be totally serious at all times in their spaces and they don't know how to like... Chill the fuck out? Half the posts people are making are from the toilet on a work break. It's just not that serious.
If they chilled out and enjoyed themselves a bit more the whole thing would be 100x better. This is the primary difference between us. We're trying to have fun.
Investigated here after the pre-last resort defederation from .world and was confused why people having fun was being construed as "The rhetoric and goal of Hexbar are clear based on their announcement: to “dismantle western propaganda” and "demolish organizations such as NATO” shows that Hexbar has no intention of "respecting the rules of the community instance in which they are posting/commenting.”"
It's like they tried to sound smart and lost me at the 'I came here and looked around for 5 seconds and realized it's not what they were saying it was."

It's because I upvote anyone with pronouns in their username on Lemmy 
It wasn't fun at the time, but I'm glad we had the pronouns struggle session long before federation.

It's simple, I see Hexbears that I have spent the last THREE YEARS posting with, and I upvote.

Liberals disputing vote counts when it doesn't go their way? I swear I've seen this before, but usually in the global south.

i like how they think the fking Chinese or Russian Cyberinfluence division or whatever would spend any time or effort on a fking site that has 1000 active users at most
Many years ago, before I had even discovered /r/chapotraphouse, I used to post on /r/geopolitics. Of course as you can imagine the self-important nerds there would accuse people left and right of being Chinese/Russian bots. I once asked why the fuck the MSS or FSB or whatever would spend their time shitposting on a sub with like a thousand users and they claimed that "real international relations experts post here regularly" and then I got banned.
Worth it.
at least when we were on reddit it made at least a little sense, since you were connected to a larger site
the ironic thing was that user survey on reddit that found the most active city on reddit was some US Airforce base lol
等等，你们发工资了吗?Plot-twist: it's actually the the North Korean Cyberintelligence division who are making use of Juche divination to see the future and the revolutionary importance of Hexbear.
any idea on how i claim my payment from the see see pee? I was promised a substantial payment, however, I have been unable to locate my local secret police station. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They're conditioned to and glorify negativity, is what it is. I get downvoted for the most innocuous shit when I post or comment in self-proclaimed "liberal" instances.
I've been commenting frequently on y'alls posts since you federated. I've not received a single downvote here. Not one.
They find even-keeledness and agreeability sinister. That says a lot.

If we're only averaging ~10 up votes then more people need to sort active/all and join the protracted people's war.
It's like we have a whole new side quest option now.
Mostly Normal Hexbear Time : Local Hot
Dunkerinos Extravaganza : All Active

Three Hexbear users preparing to upvote each other's posts, circa 2023 (recolourised)
1.2k upvotes on a post with 3.5 comments: looks legit.
35 comments from 35 users with 35 upvotes on average: PROPAGANDA BOT FARM!!111
I have less upvotes and it's not fair
