On hexbear I get so many upbears for the goofiest ahh shit I write, silly bits, dad jokes, any old thing my brain farts up. On reddit, you’re pushing like one or two upvotes and always downvotes, like people are big mad over there and everything is srsbsns.
Boy for being stick in the mud tankies we sure are lighthearted.
Removing downvotes helped a lot, I think. If you disagree with something, you gotta actually articulate why.
btw, for anyone viewing on other instances: Yes you can downvote, no we don’t see it
use your wordsYes. Or if you disagree… just move on, it doesn’t fucking matter. I read and write dumb shit on here all the time and it’s ok (usually), I’m just happy to be here
What I love about this site is people rarely respond to the dumb shit I say because it’s very easy to say dumb shit without being a bigot. Sometimes my dumb shit just confuses people and they ask for clarification lmao
this site would upvote anything, even this stupid comment
This comment is approved by the admin cabal
one time I accused the admins of hoarding all the moving profile pics but then they suggested I try uploading one and then it worked first try
I dunno, seeing AI “art” posts routinely get no doots is always funny.
Life as a leftist is exhausting, sure. The world is a bleak place ruled by genocidal narcissists. But imagine being a reddit lib that believes everything they take in from their sacred texts: MSNBC, NYT, WaPo, The Atlantic. You’d be on edge all of the time. History is just some shit they tried to force upon you in school but the current moment? This shit is real. There’s no framework to understand anything that’s happening—it’s unprecedented! It’s a wonder they’re not having panic attacks all the time.
As a leftist, life definitely sucks but at least I have community and we can still bring each other joy. I’m also able to understand that what’s happening now is part of an unbroken chain going back thousands of years and see myself as part of the collective resistance against feudalism/liberalism/capitalism/fascism.
I’m gay and communist
It’s almost as if we know what’s going on and maintain our sense of joy and hope through the camaraderie we share
IANAL, but DAE le epic bacon?
EDIT: thanks for the gold, kind stranger
Look I didn’t post that extra long French fry to r/mildlyinteresting to get a bunch of inane jokes and sass. I was trying to start a serious discussion
On reddit really all that matters for comment updoots is being early.
I appreciate being able to post my intrusive thoughts here instead of bugging someone with them irl. I don’t wanna know if people dislike my intrusive thought. I wanna know who likes it.
Peepeepoopop
it’s only because we don’t have downvotes i want them back i would downvote so much hexbear stuff if I had the power but noooo I’m forced to see every beanis post hit the front page and making a disparaging comment only increases the time it is on the front page
I disagree, even when we had downvotes it was like this.
Sure but I felt better exercising my
You can hide posts from your feed. Just go wild shit-talking the beanis and then hide, best of both worlds for you.
hahaha I think that would actually be a good bit; Hexbear who goes “this post is FUCKING AWFUL
” and as soon as someone replies going “wtf is your deal” immediately responding with “I’m hiding this post 
” and not replying again
This site is basically everyone throwing treats into each others mouths.
yim yum gib treat
I even upvote people I’m arguing with until they annoy me too much with too much back n forth
