Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?
I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don't actually think everyone there is insane. I don't care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point
Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It's not going to scare me to take this down

Honestly my only issue with them is literally anyone who is not them is "an evil pro-genocide lib" (lib, liberal is like the biggest insult they can throw at you as it's essentially the definition of their opposition.) Doesn't exactly feel great to see an entire community see you as the absolute evil and everything that is wrong with the world just because you may not agree that an economy run by committee is the best way, or that an authoritarian "vanguard" is the right way to a better society.
If they're all about workers solidarity and community then they should try to see us if anything as simply "ignorant" not stupid, not willingly aiding genocide, just lacking information that they could help share. Instead a lot of them are just vicious. There are some like Cowbee that seem like good people who want to help others understand their views.
You catch more flies with honey than vinegar indeed:-).
That's a phrase I live my life by to be honest lol
It is a good one. I mean, there are definitely situations where being not-nice is required, e.g. police dealing with a shooting spree in-progress that shows no sign of abating on its own, but as a whole, I do think society would progress much more smoothly if people were to live by that. (and by "that" I mean logic as a whole, of which this is only one tiny piece:-P)

There are many Anarchists on Hexbear, by the way.
Additionally, what is your conception of the Vanguard that leads you to call it "authoritarian?" The IWW is a vanguard, as is PSL. The role of the Vanguard is essentially to be the most knowledgeable and dedicated to proletarian liberation among the Workers, to help educate and organize.
