I’ve debated whether or not I should post this, but I’ve been feeling quite disappointed with the quality of comments on Hexbear threads recently.
Since many threads are crossposted between here and there, I would often read the comments on both threads for different perspectives (and to be honest, for more content in general).
In the last few weeks, however, I’ve been finding myself again and again in situations where I read the Lemmygrad thread and it’s completely fine, and then when I check the Hexbear crosspost I would find the comments to be, for lack of a better phrase, an absolute dumpster fire.
Not sure if it’s just me, maybe unlucky coincidences, or something of a pattern that I’ve just missed.
I don’t mean to be negative, it’s just been bothering me lately.
hexbear is a “big tent” thing mostly made up of am*ricans, a lot of them aren’t marxists, as shown by their stance on llms among other things
i wouldn’t take most of them too seriously
