Comment on Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them?

  What? There’s plenty of nonsense in there, for example:

  [lemm.ee/comment/2394714](also, fuck off landlord. Mao was right.)

  From the wiki:

  In this vein, Mao insisted that the people themselves, not the public security organs, should become involved in enacting the Land Reform Law and killing the landlords who had oppressed them, in contrast to the Soviet practice of dekulakization.

  … yikes. That said, it’s online bickering, there’s always going to be examples of bad behaviour.

  As for my own, unasked, opinion on hexbear. I don’t really notice them around. Maybe its because I’m blind to them as I am generally left leaning, I did by contrast notice the EH memes before they were defederated. I’m generally an all/new scroller on Lemmy.

    No, no, they’re right on this one. Killing your landlord is good actually. Like literally everything else Mao did was bad, but he was right on this.

      I’m a little more reserved. I would peg my response to their attitude to change.

      If they’re willing to step aside, or even support shelter becoming a human right, then I’ve got bigger problems than them.

      If they’re going to cling tooth and nail to a system that sees people freeze and starve for their own enrichment then yeah, fuck 'em.

        I mean, they could do that now. They don’t gotta wait until the knives are at their throat–though if that does happen, i expect plenty will say whatever they think will get them off the hook.

      I get the feeling if you learnt more about Mao you’d find a lot of things you’d want to add to your list.
