Remembering to look for and ignore folks with that telltale indicator has made the fediverse so much more enjoyable.

    This is essentially gaslighting. Almost every time I saw a reply that was so out of line toxic was from hexbear. Ex: “disgusting capitalist bootlicker. Kys.” under a post saying we should vote for Biden. I can go find these actual words on the post that was titled “get out and vote!” with an image that said “not voting is a vote for trump” if you want.

      Voting for a genocidal imperialist warmonger isn’t leftist, so it makes sense that leftists oppose that. I’m not gaslighting, you’re kinda proving my point, it’s the leftism that’s the issue.
