tankies are not bastions of logical and rational thought. hexbear is way, way out there - about as divorced from reality as is humanly possible

Because it has grad in the name. grad= Leningrad. Leningrad= Russia. Russia= Russians. Russians= scum. Lemmygrad users are fucking scum
Between them and all the goons over at Hexbear…. They’re basically the r/the_donald of the left.
I’m convinced that it began as a big troll/joke amongst them, and that we’re just about at the point where all the dumbasses begin to take it seriously.
Well it's because they are Marxist.
In the Lemmy culture Marxism has a very bad name because almost religious overtones of its adherents.
Which is of ironically very much what Marx was warning against. But that's how it works right now.
I pretty much enjoy most of what I see from hexbear, but I have blocked a bunch of stuff from lemmygrad.
