My handlers are asking me to tell you not to link/tag the comment or post, to prevent accusations of brigading obviously, but there have been a ton that should be added as new taglines for the site.

The one that prompted this post:

I'm fine with interacting with people of different ideologies and cultures, but I feel like the hexbears mostly just want to harass us "tankies".

Huh? Do you mean "liberals"? Hexbears are the ones liberals and leftcoms call "tankies"

From what I can tell, which so far is decidedly little, everyone is calling everyone tankies.

Is it narcissistic to post my own?

Lib: Basically, every thing wrong with the ccp, every evil, is just western propaganda. They deny the Ughur genocide, tiananmen square, they deny everything and call it western propaganda.

Me: Wow, they really deny that stuff? Do you have any good sources I can throw at them next time I see that?

Lib: Nothing really, they just call it western propoganda. Theres no point.

Me: Maybe some would listen if we showed them strong enough evidence, I mean all that stuff is pretty well documented, right? Aren't there like, pictures or something? At the very least, if we force them to deny strong, reputable sources, it'd make the pitch to defederate stronger.

Lib: It is well documented, they have been shown sources, and they do not care. I really hope they defed from hexbear soon.

Me: I know, I'm just asking you to share them with me so I can use them too next time.

    Could you include usernames so it’s easier to follow along?

    I love that they followed up with a "uh yeah I figured out you were trolling" and then provided WIKIPEDIA as the only source

    No the user you interacted with literally did the bit unironically later
