I’ve been having a number of conversations on Hexchan recently trying to make sense of their politics. The most common instance of their hateful hypocrisy I’ve encountered is this constant assurance that they support trans people while immediately attacking and dog piling and trans people who point out that the situation would be much worse under Trump.

The hexchanners who aren’t actively Russian trolls seem to be little more than useful idiots for conservatives, minimizing the damage they do to vulnerable populations and engaging in high school level pettiness and hate.

    I’m sick of Democrats being too afraid to use strongarm tactics like McConnell did

    Same. But what you’re describing involves more than “get a guy to point a gun at John Roberts,” which wouldn’t work. Discussing ways to play hardball with conservative Dems makes sense; banging the table over an oversimplified solution doesn’t.
