I had a look at their posting history and after about 30 seconds - I found something funny.

They are a conservative but they support unions. etc.

Calls for Starbucks boycott grow amid aggressive union-busting activities - Hexbear

I’m not a fan of their coffee at all. I work in sales, so if a customer wants it. I buy it but otherwise I skip them.

I don’t like their union bashing but I’d have to be a customer to boycott it.

I’m a conservative but I support unions. It’s a check and balance to the system. We need strong unions. I also fully support unions being on the board of companies.

I could rant how I dislike boards. They’re supposed to keep things running and they do a shit Job. They do a great job of making everyone focus on the ceo who is controlled by the board.

This person can be radicalized

[-] posthexbearposting@hexbear.net 39 points 1 year ago

if by radicalised you mean becoming a brown shirt, then sure.

he seemed too stubborn to listen to basic good faith advice on how to treat minorities without prejudice in this thread. He might like unions but so do natsocs when theyre doing natsoc stuff.

Easier to radicalize someone capable of empathy tbh

Not saying this person's impossible, maybe someone can get through to him logically why his white perspective is limited. But in my experience it's very difficult to teach cishet white males empathy if they don't get their themselves.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
