I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of ‘hitlerites’

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

    They’re decent people as long as you don’t argue politics with them… I think

      Sometimes I like hexbear, agree with them and laugh with them, and sometimes their insular attitude makes me cringe. I am very critical of the democratic establishment in the US but hexbear’s “blueMAGA” talk is really offputting to me and sounds like the incel / redpill speak from parts of reddit and other online communities.

        Given the liberal meltdown post election and inability to self reflect about the landslide loss, blue MAGA is entirely fitting.

          MAGA is a movement that glorifies a Hitler like figure who has promised to put tens of millions of honest workers in concentration camps because somehow immigrants are the cause of all their woes. These folks were both willing to deny any loss for any reason and willing to kill their neighbors in a civil war to “take their county back” if they lose.

          “bluemaga” are people what mad that America’s Hitler won?

          “I’ll be glad when they all get deported or end up in camps, serves them right for being anti-genocide single issue voters.”

          Totally rational statement.
