Not sure what if any specific accusations you have in your head that remain unspoken, but the only thing you're doing right now is showing off your terminal war on terror brain. "Extremists" means nothing. You're talking about a community that posts owl pictures.
Did they yell at you too much for supporting a genocide? Did someone in your past refer to someone trying to purge leftists a 'nazi' and you took it personally?
You're the extremist. You're upset because you're a bad person talking about good people.
It's hilarious how I don't even need to say anything more than that those two websites are bad and you immediately constructed a whole bogeyman to punch at.
Anyone who's visiting lemmygrad.ml (btw having a logo literally showing a battle tank) for more than 30 minutes and reading replies will not just see phenomenal bias towards China, the USSR and BRICS but utter denial of anything bad about them (usually through a mix of whataboutism and rabbit holes of political theory that eventually lead nowhere unless seen through a romanticized lense). Common "NATO caused Ukraine" and even old USSR propaganda nonsense gets flung around. Meanwhile you have to click through it really hard to find even one, for example, China-critical post (couldn't find even one). Same with hexbear. The bias is as bad as your comebacks.
Well educated people are able to see and criticize all kind of wrongdoing, let it be from Russia, Israel, USA, China, socialism, capitalism or even some internet dork in the comment section. Those communities can not, they're purely ideology- and doctrin-driven.
I welcome anyone reading this to visit lemmygrad.ml or hexbear.net and make up their own mind. ๐
Are you literally a bot? Your answer is so generic and nonspecific. Why are you replying to me if you're not going to answer my questions or respond to anything I said.
What boogeyman? This is the second time someone's used that buzzword without explaining wtf they're talking about with it.
The other 90% of your comment is just you being a fucking idiot saying shit about things you've never investigated. It alludes to the idea that you've had arguments with people before, but when they inform you of recent history and uncontroversial facts, you just have a mental block that prevents you from learning anything. But it cannot be emphasized enough: it's nothing but a robotic rant about leftists that you could have stuck under any comment that triggered you.
But I'll second your recommendation that people visit those sites, especially hexbear. These people are not normal, they're not good, and there are places where you can have a good internet experience without these right wing psychos recreating the worst parts of reddit.
