Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.

Maybe. But previously when I engaged with people making this same claim, when they provided their evidence (a link to a hexbear post) and I actually spent the effort to verify it, it was trivially clear that their evidence was wrong, and when I showed that to them, they blew up and blocked me from the entire community (they were a mod).
Since then I've been pretty skeptical of people making this claim.
Don't take my word for it. Even though your instance is defederated from them you can still go to hexbear.net and search locally for posts about Ukraine.
If you want context: Hexbear is largely a fanbase of Chapo Trap House. Most people who report on Hexbear usually are unaware of this.
Sorry, what's the context that this provides? I'm honestly not that familiar with the podcast other than it being far left
I often see hexbear users referred to as far-right by those that tend to antagonize.
I've seen many an essayist talk about hexbear and never mention it, so I thought I'd bring it up.
Cool, thank you
Ah, thank you.
The context is that, like the alt-right, they retreat into "H-ha ha, I w-was just trolling" whenever too many eyes are on them.
