I remember opening that comment section, not being aware of how old Hexbear is and thinking "fuck, but there are a lot of em". Nice to see so many good faith (or plain silly) replies. Was a bit worried about what I'd see from how spicy I've seen you lot be in this community, TBH.

We're the Boogeyman of Lemmy. Anyone who actually comes here gets along great. We're just incredibly hostile to anyone even slightly reactionary or uninformed. Something that became somewhat of a necessity to protect our role as a safe space for both leftists and minority communities.

The only reasons anyone is scared of us is because they know they have reactionary opinions and they know that if exposed to us we will absolutely shred them to pieces.
