I see all over Lemmy, people really seem to hate hexbear, and I don’t get it. Can someone explain why most of Lemmy seems to absolutely hate them?

Someone who knows little about politics commenting “Vote blue no matter who!” is not interacting in bad faith, and does not deserve to be called a dipshit.
Someone who knows little about politics should probably be asking questions rather than saying shit like “vote blue no matter who” when they’re committing a genocide
Hexbear is a strictly leftist instance; I think it’s reasonable for them expect someone saying shit like that to at least think they’re politically literate.
The original comment gave the example of calling a federated user a dipshit for saying something like that.
Also, while I agree that someone who knows little should ask questions, it is very common for them to assume they know enough.
Yes, that isn’t justifiable in your society. Surely you’ll be safe and pampered in your society. But, yours
you’reare not the only one. There are a lot of other societies that are different than yours. How will you be able to interact or even fight them (as foes) if you don’t understand them. Thats why you need to understand them so that you’ll be well equipped and can plot your strategies for future interactions. To understand them is not equal to agreeing with them.Anyway, life will be much more exciting when we are open to new encounters. Just like when we are able to speak many languages, imagine that.
