Pretty much all my experiences with that instance and similar ones have been disgusting.
Pushing people who post burning flags of a country and posts about it to be fully wiped out are accepted… Criticism regarding this gets your comment remove and a ban from the community.
I don’t need that again. Where can I block this pseudo-left pro-authoritarian instance in Voyager?
Yeah, my bad… I should have entered a high quality discussion with someone who uses burning flags for communication. Damn… Probably, I’m missing out… 😅
Death to America, Death to Israel. Liberation to trans people. From the river to the sea. China is socialist. Stalin shouldn’t have stopped in Berlin. Uncritical support for the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea in its ongoing resistance against the genocidal American empire.
You know what, “comerade”… Feel free to continue uncritically supporting North Korea (whatever than means) and good luck with your “death to XY” attitude… How can you expect anyone to take that serious?
there are separate worldviews than yours
Yes, and between black and white, there is a huge gray area. You should try it out.
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.
And for what it’s worth, I am quite welcome most places on Lemmy. There are a few users like yourself that seem to hate me, but those are in the minority of those I interact with. I’m a Leftist, after all, and Lemmy is usually pretty left-leaning. You can keep calling everyone that disagrees with you a fascist, but that doesn’t make it true.
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.
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.
.
If you want to talk about a fake democracy, look no further than the US. Previously:
The US government was never not captured by the bourgeoisie, because the US was born of a bourgeois revolution[1]. The wealthy, white, male, land-owning, largely slave-owning Founding Fathers constructed a bourgeois state with “checks and balances” against the “tyranny of the majority”. It was never meant to represent the majority—the working class—and it never has, despite eventually allowing women and non-whites (at least those not disenfranchised by the carceral system) to vote. BBC: [Princeton & Northwestern] Study: US is an oligarchy, not a democracy
I only have 2 accounts, my .ml and my hexbear account. Edie is her own person, and misgendering faer when she puts her pronouns publicly is queerphobic.
Moreover, Xi isn’t a dictator. Disagreeing with one person’s unsourced and vibes-based analysis does not make me a fan of dictators.
You’re talking about Hexbear being pro-Palestinian and anti-Zionist as though they are anti-semetic and wish extermination on Jewish people.
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.
I started writing a response to this, but it ended up exceeding Lemmy’s maximum comment length, so I had to make it as a separate post. I invite you to hear my piece, though I frankly doubt you will.
With “I have different views” or “I have a reason to not like country XY and it is …”, you can achieve a conversation with someone about it. By burning flags or sending that action as emoji, you are just making sure to end the conversation as quickly as possible or to even prevent it completely.
If you take some time and ask on the streets, you will find a person who has a really good reason to hate a country and you can achieve this for all countries on the planet. And if they start to burn a flag on the streets right on front of a random person, that random person will probably think “What a f*cking idiot”.
And it’s quite ironic that you write a **3 pages long text **about the usage of a burning-flag-emoji and how it could be interpreted. If you want your view to be interpreted “correctly”, then why posting 1 single burning flag in the first place instead of writing what you actually want to say??? It’s like showing someone the middle finger and afterwards, I talk an hour with that person and explain them the long story that their dad and I once had a conflict.
And if they start to burn a flag on the streets right on front of a random person, that random person will probably think “What a f*cking idiot”.
One of my first moments of awakening that led me to becoming a leftist was seeing a protestor burn an American flag in response to the American intervention in Afghanistan in 2001. It aroused feelings in me that my stupid child brain had trouble putting into words. So at least in my case, a burning flag had a positive outcome, and I’ll always thank that anonymous person who I’ll never know. My greatest love of my nation’s flag is its flammability.
Well, I can totally get what you’re talking about,
but instance blocking on lemmy only blocks communities and posts from a specific instance.
I’d recommend you check out an instance which defederates from hex. Like lemmy.ca, sh.itjust.works and sopuli.xyz.

Imagine being angry about flag burning in 2025.
I hold more loyalty to my dish rag at this point
Imagine being angry enough about a country to post its flag burning over and over again…
Yeah what kind of fringe weirdo could possibly be angry at America in 2025

Roughly how many comments would you say you have that are just raging about Russia?
Putin or Russia? That’s quite a difference. And how many of them contain a burning flag or a burning Putin? Feel free to look it up…
No war but class war, I’m sorry your brainwashing has convinced you that your fellow peasants are the enemy.
Which one is your favorite?
your mom.
It’s exactly this shit that makes me eternally thankful for places like hexbear

Stop being such a pearl clutching liberal nerd
Nice one, troll…
Is that the response of the prompt “Hey ChatGPT (or probably Deepseek, sorry), I have some views. Please make them look as radical as possible”?
lol, that says something…
I genuinely believe in all the things I just said
Why is it so much easier to assume I’m joking than to confront the idea there are separate worldviews than yours?
You know what, “comerade”… Feel free to continue uncritically supporting North Korea (whatever than means) and good luck with your “death to XY” attitude… How can you expect anyone to take that serious?
Yes, and between black and white, there is a huge gray area. You should try it out.

What does it say? Be specific for once, instead of hiding behind smug insinuation like liberals always do. Tell me what it says.
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.

So when does someone besides Xi get “elected” in this so called “democracy”?
When people want someone else to be in his position 👍

He did not declare himself president for life 👍

When you are the only person allowed to be president and you end term limits that means you are expecting to be in power until you die.
Like dictators do.
You also can’t support authoritarianism and be a leftist.
Fascist movements are inherently right wing, as leftist movements are defined by shared power and control.
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.
What do I have to do with US?
Most democracy rankings rank it as flawed democracy anyway. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Economist_Democracy_Index
What’s the imprisonment quote of Uigurs in China by the way?
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”.

Xi isn’t a dictator, nor is he the sole government of the PRC.
So why does he get to have totolitarian control over the country for life? INB4 more denial.
Constant denial of reality is a disgusting look for a “democracy”. It’s a disgusting look for you.
He doesn’t. Can you back any of your claims up, at all?
When everything he wants to happen happens that means he has the control.
Sorry this is hard to see but it requires looking with your eyes
“If Xi isn’t a dictator, then why do I think he is? Checkmate, tankies!”
So when does he willingly step down from office?
In the US it’s at least every 8 years
Xi has been re-elected twice because people are happy with the steady improvements in their material conditions.

If you want to talk about a fake democracy, look no further than the US. Previously:
Most people in china get executed if they don’t accept the party narrative you sheep
Cowbee isnt praising a dictator, like its not even written in a way where you can maybe misunderstand it as such.
Why do people keep having such a hard time reading? Is this the USA education system?
Cowbees use your main account like a big boy
Also refusing to call a dictator a dictator means you like that they are a dictator but don’t like having to admit you like dictators publicly.
Hello, I am Edie, not Cowbee.
I only have 2 accounts, my .ml and my hexbear account. Edie is her own person, and misgendering faer when she puts her pronouns publicly is queerphobic.
