Sure. I reported a death threat, the mods posted the report to dunktank, and the mobs came after me.

The account has, understandably, been deleted. Weeks of harassment.

I'm sorry to hear that. I still don't see where that makes Hexbear authoritarian, though.

I thought you asked for examples of harassment...

No, their pro CCP and Kremlin takes are enough for the latter.

Particularly that they are pro Ukranian invasion. I could even buy an anti US imperialism stance. but they are instead pro Russian imperialism.

That was in response to me telling you how they operate and aren't simply "authoritarian supporters", to which you said you have "ample experience."

Support for the CPC is still Marxist, and opposing NATO is also Marxist. Hexbear does not support the Kremlin from what I have seen. You say you're a Marxist but disagree with this, which is why I am asking what you think Marx wanted that Hexbear doesn't, or vice-versa.

Marx didint even believe in an established government. Much less one that invades a soveriegn nation such as Ukraine. Are you implying imperialism is compatible with the views of Marx?

There's a differnece in being anti NATO and pro Ukraine invasion.

Marx absolutely believed in an established government, read Critique of the Gotha Programme. Marx advocated for a worker-state until class was abolished, then the instruments used to opress one class by another would be abolished. The government would remain. Read Engels' On Authority for more information. You're "anarchist-washing" Marx.

Marx wouldn't support the invasion of Ukraine, and neither does Hexbear. Hexbear supports a ceasefire.

Im sorry, but your facts are wrong man, namely that hexbear does not support the invasion.

At this point Im choosing to block you. Ive already gotten away from the tankies once. No interested in trying to argue with one again.

Do you have any proof? What have I been wrong about? Why am I a tankie for suggesting that you read Marx?
