Yep, to be clear ideologically I fall more into the “queer anarchist” camp and am not an authoritarian communist.

I know that hexbear is mostly old chapotraphouse posters who are more in the Marxist-Leninist camp. I don’t agree with them on many things, but I think their brand of being rude and insulting to capitalists and liberals is valid and kind of funny.

Not only is capitalism morally reprehensible and responsible for colonisation, white supremacy, inequality, and genocide. It’s also just a really stupid and nonsensical system that expects infinite growth within a system with finite resources. It’s a death cult with the growth pattern of cancer. Continuing with that system in spite of decades of empirical evidence that it is leading our world into collapse is completely insane in my opinion. People who believe in that shouldn’t be reasoned with, they should be insulted.

Anyway on first glance through hexbear I didn’t see anything “completely insane”. However if I go to somewhere like Reddit what I see is the complete insanity of people justifying and making excuses for morally reprehensible systems such as capitalism and acts of genocide.

I think liberals and centrists view themselves as being rational and reasonable when they’re not at all.
