    You found this from that brainworms commenter, didn’t you? That was the dumbest conversation I’ve had so far this week, though TBF it’s only Monday.

    Hexbear users aren't trolls and their personas aren't leftist. They're literally just reactionary conservatives claiming that reactionary conservative positions are left wing. Watch them defend capitalist Russia as though the Berlin Wall never fell, watch them deny genocide of Uyghurs, watch them say not to vote so that Trump can win the presidency and bomb the west bank. Then watch them call their capitalist, genocidal, zionist positions left wing.

    I don't think they're being dishonest about the content of their political views, I think their reactionary, borderline fascist positions are entirely genuine.

    And also, there's nobody to the left of a soulist like me. http://soulism.net. If there were, I'd agree with them.

    It also reminds me of SF’s & Gavin Newsom’s Care not Cash.

    Care Not Cash was a San Francisco ballot measure (Proposition N) approved by the voters in November 2002. Primarily sponsored by Gavin Newsom, then a San Francisco supervisor, it was designed to cut the money given in the General Assistance programs to homeless people in exchange for shelters and other forms of services. The major intent of this measure was to prevent the cash grants given to be used for purchasing drugs and alcohol, and to strongly encourage homeless people to enter shelters or housing and obtain counseling and other services.
