I want to rock my lemmygrad account here but my hexbear account has a better username and better emotes so it's really not a hard choice

I dont see Active sort for comments. Anyway, active is just whatever is getting the most activity right now good or bad

I read an article in the Seattle Times about the Niger coup a few days ago. Talks about how they're hostile to France (ostensibly presented as a bad thing, no mention of French misadventures in West Africa) and pro Russia (scary! bad!)

Some talk about how it will affect the fight against islamic insurgents as well with the absence of French troops, they talked about how attacks from insurgents increased after the coups in Mali and Burkina Faso but in typical western journalism fashion left the reader to draw their own conclusions on that

I wish we could sort by controversial

i prefer not to waste my time on speculation from biased sources.

fair question, but I’m sorry that I may disappoint you in saying that I doubt any news source is (or even could be) completely unbiased. major newswire sources do try by only reporting raw facts, but even they let bias slip in when editors choose which facts to report.

So what you're saying, Brooklyn Man, and expect me to believe, is that you have no beliefs and dont listen to anyone. what a moron

People on twitter seriously just make the most pointless polls to gauge...i don't even know? what their followers think?

Dude let me in! Im just here to ”start a discussion”!

Don't forget that office work will also make you "ugly"

Damn so many random ass instances that have us blocked LOL

Not at all surprised. No one remembers Pride was a riot anymore

The idea is that, by living in the west, your "neutral position" is probably already being swayed one way without your knowledge.

Thank you, that makes sense now

I'm confused why the Commonwealth, African union, and Arab league get their own colors

A lot of the "human rights abuses" you hear about in US enemy countries are either blown completely out of proportion, fabricated entirely, or caused by the US directly via sanctions, etc. When it actually happens it's extremely regrettable, of course, but you can't believe everything you read on the internet. The US is very good at lying, as I hope you know by now

Note the article title too. The russian man isn't a tourist like the rest of them: he's a Russian

It's probably from all the new server traffic lol

mods

kill this man

Nice try, FBI, you're getting nothing out of me!!!!!

Well you didn't have to tell me that, I'm always revolted by capitalists

You'd be surprised, I stuck around on GZD back when i discovered the sub on reddit for the first time

Im thinking they will simply have to adapt to our site culture when theyre on here and we will have to adapt to theirs when we are on there

That's a very small and not representative portion of Hexbear. In fact theres a little undercurrent of discontent on Hexbear with those posters

Hexbear gonna federate soon

They look so young

Maybe someday

Eliminating reasons to boot into my windows partition one by one

its okay. its really hard to have a joke like this come across over the internet lol

you ever tell a joke that just doesnt land

Furiously checking every account's join date to find the CriticalResist alt

What? impossible. they would never do maintenance

I think it does

It's a little hard to tell what it is without clicking on your profile

Hexbear is good, they seem to be convinced theres a difference between like twitter fake anarchists who dont support AES and take weird lib anti-bedtime positions and "real" anarchists who support AES and read theory.

I'm not sure why you'd call yourself an anarchist if you support AES since that seems like it would fundamentally contradict what you're supposed to believe in, but hey they dont seem to have any problems with anarchists being anti-China or anything over there so who am I to judge

Its amusing to go from Hexbear where there was a discussion about how its rude to "wrecker-jacket" i.e. accuse people of being wreckers because it encourages bad-faith discussion when a post is genuine, to here where we have a fun game called "spot the alt account"

going THERMONUCLEAR

Paradoxically this means you've got to go as well

Definitely noticed that too, which is of course what makes it such a powerful symbol

any time someone on this website annoys me i'm going to go THERMONUCLEAR on them
