They've been shielded from even critical support of China and other AES for so long they literally, not figuratively, literally cannot process that people exist that have beliefs that aren't Reddit Approved. They immediately assume it's bots or wumao. Human beings can't possibly hold these beliefs, so they must be Oriental hordes or actual robots.

No we are not, thank God. Would hate to have to pay 1000 dollarios a month for my insuline.

I KNOW you people. Chapotraphouse was your origins. I'm a defector of sorts. There was a demographic poll and you were overwhelmingly American (and white). You're still 90% the same audience. What makes you think the subreddit dedicated to an American political podcast wasn't extremely American?

Uh this is a citations-needed fansite, ma'am/sir/themby

Ngl, original chapo was pretty white cishet, but in the three years we've been stewing here we've gone through some pretty big demographic changes (also like a load of the users got transed)

Also worth noting that the majority of the sub literally just didn't listen to the podcast because its bad - I've been here for years and I've literally never heard a full episode of it. But yeah the radical queer inclusivity of hexbear was what got and kept me in as opposed to any other internet space, and then the hexbears got me to actually read theory along the way. hexbear-pride
