For sure, sorry if my comment was focusing too much on something minor you said but I felt it was probably worth saying something

We really should have an official rule of assuming good faith from fellow Hexbears.

I’m not a Hexbear so I suppose it doesn’t matter to me too much, but I strongly disagree with this. Anyone can make a Hexbear account, and a rule like this seems like it would be very easy for trolls to take advantage of. Plus, frankly, I really don’t think that just because some well-meaning progressive or whoever stumbles into making an account on Hexbear means they should be given even temporary immunity to being dunked on. Some (let’s be honest, many) people’s opinions deserve scorn. You could argue that the mods have the flexibility to enforce the rule as they see fit, but to me, that just seems to make it difficult to know if what you say is in line with the rule.

In regards to the rest of your post, I think I’m mostly in agreement with the_post_of_tom_joad. Still, I think this post is a good reminder to be more mindful of how we interact with people on here and how their comments might affect those they respond to, and I’ve seen you call out Hexbears for being a little too quick to pull the trigger on people before and upvoted you. I know I sometimes respond angrily to people here and later feel I went about it wrongly when I’ve calmed down.

"You know, frankly, these folks continue to spew pro-Hamas talking points, continue to spew anti-American, anti-Israel hatred," Lawler said,

adding that "many of them don’t seem to recognize the irony that if they were actually in Gaza, Hamas would very likely kill them."

Seems a lot more likely that the IDF would kill me if I were in Gaza, actually

biden deserves worse. i hope every day like this is torturous and that he lives another 50 years like this

there’s a really good port of dodonpachi daioujou on the iphone app store, idk about android. sorcery is another good one, based on an old steve jackson gamebook

grow a fucking spine

It seems unlikely to me that they’d use covid as the excuse considering how hard they try to pretend that the pandemic is over and that Biden defeated it

This article doesn’t contradict what I said so I don’t really understand why you linked it? I didn’t say memes have no social impact. I said that voters cannot be disenfranchised by a meme.

Anyways, I don’t really care to keep arguing about this tangent with you, so feel free to reply with whatever inane drivel first comes to mind so you can go back to defending the people committing genocide.

you can’t “disenfranchise” voters with a fucking meme holy shit. words have meaning. i know you’ve got a brain in your head somewhere, try using it some time

Link for the lazy

Not killing an animal in the first place seems like the most effective way of minimizing egregious pain and suffering within practicality to me
