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

  I’m trying to talk in good faith, but I don’t have 10 hours to read about it. I’ve only researched about 1 or 2 hours. But I’m definitely not just taking your website at face value.

  If you want to call the discussion off, I’m fine with that. This thread has given an adequate sample of hexbear ideology.

    Right, so you didn’t read my carrd and then linked a different source instead (super good faith) that I completely refuted (apparently you felt no need to respond to my complete rebuttal]. So you didn’t read the comment or the response to your rebuttal, and yet you’re saying you’re acting in good faith because you don’t have a lot of time/haven’t done a lot of research? Whatever, then don’t act like you’re qualified to have an opinion.

    But I’m definitely not just taking your website at face value.

    What does this even mean? “Face value”? It’s a collection of sources. Seriously, if you don’t have the knowledge to even respond to my points, much less my complete refutation of your own points, don’t ghost respond to me acting like I’ve said something crazy to get support in another thread. It’s cowardly and pathetic.

    Hey I’m glad to hear you point out the good faith stuff. I’m interacting with a few of your site buddies and I gotta say, there’s a whole lot of bad faith stuff going on, so I’m sorta defensive. I’ve provided sources a few times now and just get mocked or called a propagandist for it. Not your fault though, so it is unfair to direct the frustration at you.

    I don’t expect you to read it all in one go - there’s a lot of stuff. We don’t have to continue the conversation right now, we can pick it up when you’re ready. I will say that I am not the one who gathered those sources, so beyond doing so e fact-checking and investigation on my own on these claims, I am not the most well-educated on the subject. We have a news mega, which is a great place for these exact discussions, which I would highly recommend. I can try to answer any questions you might have, though I think users like @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net or @robinn2@hexbear.net would be much better for any question that isn’t super basic. I’ll do my best though, and I’m certain there’s a lot I could learn. Again for any real in-depth discussion I’d recommend the news mega.

      It is their fault. They lost an argument only to whine about me and others in another thread (after willfully ignoring my response to their points) and now they say they “don’t have a lot of time” when asked to read, that’s textbook bad faith cowardice. This person you’re responding to, JohnDclay, is the asshole lib from the 500 response thread.
