Because there are a lot of communists on lemmy?
Some can be very annoying. If you haven't blocked hexbear, I highly recommend it. They got exiled from reddit years ago and have been stewing in a tankie echo chamber ever since.
Hexbear aren't communists, they're just using it as a facade to spread propaganda.
Huh, just like everyone else here
It's weird rather that some people are such bootlickers that they complain about people being socialists/communists after leaving a platform because of capitalism
I complained about them being annoying and tankies.
I chose to migrate.
90% of the shit spouted about Hexbear is just baseless nonsense. Soon as you actually try to have a good faith discussion, they're hecka cool.
They're abrasive kinda like Twitch Chat, but many are reasonable.
Not when I tried it. When shw federated, I tried for about 2 days to talk about stuff. But they kept defending Russia in it's invasion of Ukraine with super brain dead arguments and holding up North Korea as a shinning example of communism. Plus at the ends of threads, they often just respond with poop emojis. Or even at the beginning of threads. That's just annoying.
Edit: oh and defending or denying China's treatment of the Uyghur was also common.
