      There was literally a popup that I saw posted on here a little while ago from r/conservative that tells you essentially “this is a conservative safe space, difference of opinion is not welcome, we do not wish to have outsiders try to change our beliefs. This is for conservatives to discuss conservativism.”

      They’re a fucking joke.

        And just like hexbears all their focus and attention go to liberals lmao. Same energy in both circles.

            • No. Being sycophants for authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. Supporting Russia and China when they are committing genocide and are oligarchies and state capitlist. Spouting reactionary nonesense. Using the facade of socialism and progressivism to hide fascistic ideology.

              You know, same BS American Repubs do and conservatives and fascists of yore.

                Stop watering down the meaning of genocide! Twice as many civilians have died in Gaza as in Ukraine, and there’s no comparison at all between Gaza and Xinjiang province. More children have died in Gaza than the total number of civilians in Ukraine. Compare the numbers of journalists killed, aid workers killed, hospital staff killed, UN workers killed, there’s no contest. Gaza is what genocide actually looks like, and it comes across as shallow and hypocritical to call hexbears fascist when you’re the one that’s going to vote for genocide.

                  I’m sorry what? This genocide has killed more people than that genocide therefore…what’s your argument exactly?

                  A genocide is a genocide, and I’m sure I’m with a lot of people when I say, let’s push to stop genocide altogether. Whether that’s in our own countries, in neighboring countries, in countries from across the world and even in countries we may not have heard of, any genocide is bad.

    LOL they keep trying to call their apologia ‘research’ in order to give it unwarranted respectability

    Interestingly, it happens that when you don’t know how to actually do research (like, can you interrogate your sources, put them in appropriate context, evaluate what they have to say critically?) you’re more likely to land on disinformation sources or feed yourself confirmation bias than you would have been if you’d read what experts have to say on a given subject.
