This is just plain not true. Cool strawmanning.

As with every single time this comes up. "Hexbear would TOTALLY say this" "Oh really, any examples?" "NO BUT THEY WOULD I BET PROBABLY"

Sootius ,

It glances over so much important stuff

Sure does. Like the 8-year long shelling civilians campaign that Ukraine was undertaking on Donetsk and Luhansk, solely on the basis that it wanted to deny them a vote on their own autonomy.

Sootius ,

This is satire, right? Nobody over there glorifies or likes Pol Pot.

Sootius ,

Source: No source, because all this shit is always made the fuck up.

Sootius ,

How so? Because they don't want Donald Trump either.

Sootius ,

You clearly don't have a good handle if you can't even work out the very obvious fact that nobody there thinks "Russia is the best".

Sootius ,

Thinking the Democrats (or Republicans) are interested in passing any meaningful electoral reform is pure delusion.

Sootius ,

Hey, Trump was already president for four years, and didn't do this despite the exact same scaremongering back then. His actions in office were practically identical to Biden's now.

Sootius ,

It's more than nothing at all. Are you suggesting we should just vote and otherwise lay down and wait for fascism to descend upon us?

Sootius ,

You have no right to hold this over people’s heads, and even implying that someone who does “more than just vote” isn’t doing their part. Some of us have demanding jobs, kids, family that requires care, or other demands that do not allow time for voting instead of attending the occasional local better-timed rally which has already been made extremely difficult in some areas.

In short: get fucked. Go do activism. Don’t try to create some kind of one-upsmanship game that predicates your civic responsibility on someone else’s volunteered time.

Sootius ,

What are you on about? "its the nature of Open Source + volunteer effort to attract a more extreme ideology"? Aside from your first sentence, this is just baseless word salad.

Sootius ,

Unironically "why didn't Marx think of human nature lol"

Actually read a book and stop trying to sound like a smartass asserting stuff on the basis of "it feels true".

Sootius ,

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.

Sootius ,

Sure I'll just go in my alt-history time travel machine and be born in a communist state. Sorry for suggesting we improve things somewhat?

Sootius ,

This remains a myth unsubstantiated by any data or evidence.

Sootius ,

All I can say is that you clearly have no familiarity with open source development or the active contributors within it.

Sootius ,

If that's what's happening, you'll very easily be able to provide an example, rather than just asserting it.

Sootius ,

This literally cannot be true, because hexbear accounts cannot downvote.

Sootius ,

They're right - You've said about 10 times "evidence has been provided" instead of taking ten seconds to add a link?
