    It’s blatant though? They use right wing talking points for everything and it’s all dog whistles?

      “Geopolitics exists as a binary, and on some issues they agree with the opposite binary from me”.

      Worse actually, “they might agree with me on one issue but they disagree on another, so they must be pretending to agree with me to begin with”

        On hexbear, geopolitics exists as whatever hexbears feel like owns the shitlibs the most at that particular moment.

        Sometimes, Russia is just months away from a well planned and strategized victory, against an evil Nazi Ukraine.

        Other times, everything is a mastermind NATO move that’s all benefiting NATO, and Ukraine is just the meatgrinder victim.

        What feels most alt-right about hexbear isn’t any particular position, but the fact that there’s no particular position. No logical cohesiveness, no rooted in solid reality. It’s superfluid ever changing dream reality.

          I think the parallel with right wing extremism is because they’re both pushed by the CCP. They use a divide and conquer approach via LLMs on social media to weaken political opponents.
