I read the about. I still have no idea what this community is for. But it’s popping up in my feed a lot so figured it couldn’t hurt to ask.
We used to post on the chapotraphouse subreddit on but they banned the subreddit after we posted too many John Brown posts, so we started hexbear about 3 years ago. They banned it the same day they banned The_Donald. Probably didn’t want to appear biased. We’re a left unity group, which means we try to be welcoming to a lot of different types of socialists and communists and avoid infighting. We also have a lot of trans and gay users and accordingly are very pro trans rights.
@Hobbes@startrek.website this is the actual answer fyi

Something commonly left out is that the donald sub was already inactive at this point, its users already fled to some other shithole in anticipation of being ban. The chapo sub was definitely explicitly targeted for being leftist.
A bunch of terminally online commies and anarchists who shitpost too much. If you’re not afraid to learn about leftism, pull up a chair while I show you pictures of my hamster. He is a very nice boy, his name is Biggs
General purpose. It’s one of the most active comms here
Welcome, please enjoy our star trek emojis:
I’m new here and had never seen most of these before and 🤩 wowee wow wow, that’s some good stuff, especially Hunter S. Picard and Quarx. Where can I find the whole trove and learn how to post them?
Where can I find the whole trove
The emojinomicon and the entirety of its contents does not make itself known to any Hexbear. It is a process of submitting yourself to the Hexbear and, as a result, discovering the words of power to call forth thine chosen warrior.
and learn how to post them?
Just hover your mouse over them to see their :emojiname: - but use the emoji button in the formatting toolbar to open the picker which allows you to search for keywords like ‘trek’ or ‘picard’ (whereas typing : will only show you ones that match exactly what you enter)
The emoji comm has a pinned post with all of them (as of yesterday/until more get added).
Awesome!! Thank you!
Edit - omg, I just went there and saw the absolute dazzling array and comprehended the mountain of effort that went into making that post and recognized the username! YOU DID THAT!!?!
Holy shit. THANK YOU. We’re incredibly lucky to have you, what a badass.
Ots a community about being gay with your dad
