    You’re talking about Hexbear being pro-Palestinian and anti-Zionist as though they are anti-semetic and wish extermination on Jewish people. No, that’s not how Hexbear is, Hexbear is neither genocidal nor anti-semetic.

    You might be talking about something else, but burning a flag of say, the US, does not mean Hexbear wants to slaughter everyone in the US. It means Hexbear stands against the US State and its ruling class, same with Israel and its genocidal ruling class.

    Anti-Zionism, anti-fascism, and being pro-Palestine are all 3 Leftist stances.

    Anyway, to block a community, you can do it in your settings. You will still see comments from users, just not comms.

      I think they are probably talking about the community being in denial of China and Russia being a dictatorship, and the fascist/authoritarian cock sucking.

        Russia is certainly a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, not sure anyone would disagree with that, the people don’t have power in the Russian Federation, same with the US. China, on the other hand, is a democracy. It’s not a liberal democracy, but the people have a direct influence on how their society is run, which is why 90%+ Chinese citizens support their government.

        Hexbear is anti-fascist, so no clue what you’re talking about there, nor why you decided to go straight for homophobic/misogynistic insults at the end.

          Yeah. Even, if you disagree with the government, because then, you can still be democratic in jail…

            Not sure what you’re trying to say here, China has a much lower imprisonment ratio than the US.

                Your point was that China just imprisons people willy-nilly and thus isn’t democratic, but that’s just not true if we look at the numbers. As for the Uyghur question, no idea, the re-education program seems to be over or nearing completion so I don’t imagine its very high.

                  You forgot some quotes around “re-education”.

                  Uigur question sounds like “Jew question”, which the Nazis named that way and tried to “solve” at the Wannseekonferenz…

                  Is there even one entity that classifies or ranks democracies that sees China as an actual democracy? If yes, please give me a link. We all know that China is a one party country. If you disagree with the government, you can be open about it and go to “re-education” 🙃. Alternative: You shut up about it, which is probably what most people do.

      No, I’m talking about people from there literally suggesting to wipe out Israel… That very innovative idea hasn’t worked for the last 80 years and won’t in the next 80 years. That’s as intelligent as suggesting to wipe out the other side. I am not interested in that kind of content.

        Nobody suggests that. People want the dissolution of the Israeli state, this does not mean genocide of all Israelis, and conflating the two is a tool Zionists use in order to pretend Pro-Palestinian protestors are anti-semetic genocidal monsters.

          lol, yeah, let’s act like it did not happen. I’d try to find it and post you a link, but my comment was removed by the very brave moderators who did not do anything against the extremism and made sure that there was no criticism.

          The word was “destruction” and that was described as “based”.

            Destruction of the State apparatus of Israel would indeed be based, as Israelis and Palestinians could live in a single, secular, democratic Palestine.
