I generally align with the left on most issues, and seeing the extremist propaganda all over the fediverse has without question pushed me towards the right.
I see why people say Hexbear is a bunch of right wingers masquerading as leftists.
Yeah, for some I might be hardcore leftist radical, and generally hold many anticapitalist, anticonsumerism sentiments.
However reading opinions of these people, I can’t see how world order they are proposing would be any better for anyone, except for those on the top, just like we have now.
I also hate the assumption that communist society would be inherently more ecological than capitalist one, or more eqalitarian, like these people seem to think.
Reading pro soviet stuff is also infuriating for me as someone living in Finland, usually shit takes that totally oversimplify history of my country.
Same thing with anti NATO stuff, I am not generally too fond of NATO but I am still OK with Finland joining cause, uuum have you notice there is fascist country right next to us that seems to have no problem attacking neighbouring countries, that are not in NATO.
Unfortunately this kind of nuance is impossible to these chronically online people, who just make up shit to justify their agenda.
They just think we will have leftist revolution and then everything will be alright, instead of considering for one second how all this would play out in real life.
We have to be a lot more vigilant about bots now, don’t we? Not just on Lemmy, but everywhere.
It’s going to be bots talking to bots pretty soon, once everyone figures out that yeah, everyone but me is probably ChatGPT. People are already moving toward closed group chats. Open social media is just too damn toxic for too many reasons.

I completely agree with you except one thing.
I think a lot of them are LLMs, not real people.

Yeah pretty much. Seems like most people don’t realize yet.
