I am exactly the same; why are we like this?

Yeah? Can you provide even 1 example of someone on Hexbear posting something a) civil and b) not fascist?

No, neither candidate has won their primary yet, as the article.makes clear.

To secure the Republican nomination for Colorado’s 4th District in November Boebert will have to defeat state representatives Mike Lynch and Richard Holtorf, ex-state senator Jerry Sonnenberg, business owner Peter Yu and former talk radio presenter Deborah Flore. For the Democratic nomination McCorkle is running against engineer John Padora and ex-speechwriter Trisha Calvarese, who will also contest the special election in June.

And the admins of Hexbear are relentlessly pro-CCP, implying that they’re homophobic.

It may well be “leftist”, but it’s also maximum authoritarian. Hexbears love fascism like a raccoon loves trash. If you’re anything but a full-on Nazi, absolutely including being a genocide denier, you’ll be relentlessly attacked on there.

I have the entire instance blocked in my client, so I can’t even go searching for a thread for you. But if you don’t, it should be incredibly easy to poke the hexbear, so to speak. Lemme grab you a link…

Here, this one should work. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Uyghurs_in_China

Find an appropriate sublemmy on Hexbear and post this, ideally in a context that explicitly declares you oppose genocide. You’ll get nothing but the following in your thread:

1. Accusations that you are a “shitlib”. Any attempt by you to find out what this word means will result in additional mockery.
2. Denials of the Uyghur genocide.
3. Adoration of the CCP, especially Xi Jinping (but Hexbear likes any authoritarian tyrant in China, so any CCP politician may end up adulated).

Sure. But I stand by my position that the best I can do is what women consistently tell me they want me to do.

I don’t think extra questions will help if your prospective partner is determined to lie to you about their consent.

Yes, exactly.

You thankfully appear to have not been exposed to a “proper” hexbear thread where all they can do to communicate is call you a shitlib for doing things like acknowledging genocide.

My boat was very cheap, so a lawsuit would lose me money, but you might be able to win a lot more over attempted murder. Maybe worth the cost of paying a lawyer to hear you out?

That’s fantastic; I’m happy for you.

I am saying they claimed that. I have no more knowledge than you do if they were telling the truth.

How bad are these that Hexbear didn’t even make the list? Drilling through on the clickable version here makes it clear that the #1, poa.st, has the same basic content as Hexbear, but I’m assuming it’s somehow way worse. Just imagine.

Of course not. It was only three times where the problem was asking for consent to kiss, not only three times for consent period. My consent rejection list is considerably longer than 3.

Didn’t I see you in those threads about the women choosing bears over men supporting the idea of men listening when women tell men they need to change their behaviour? Why are you now attacking me for doing it?

You are free to assume they lied to me.

What’s amusing is that these same people will, in other threads, bash men who take the only other feasible approach, which is the giving up you’re referring to. They want to have their cake and eat it, too: in this thread, it’s never ok to make a pass at a woman, but if you make a thread about being lonely, you’ll be told you’re a coward for not making passes at women.

Or, you know, give women what they are literally telling me they want, which is what I did.

No rationale given, they just told me to sue in civil court instead.

I wish I lived in your world. I’ve had 3 rejections specifically because I asked for permission to kiss.
