    Raddle has existed for years. You should remember that the authoritarians who founded Hexbear could have made a forum on our site, but they decided to chase power instead.

      "you could have been on my site where im in charge but nooooo you didnt. you authoritarian!"

      that about right? wouldnt making HexBear be the most anarchist thing to do?

      extra thought, i assume you have full control of the website, making you the.....authoritarian?

        Not only does ziq have full control of the website, they've got full control of most of the user accounts too (they're all sockpuppets)

      I am an ancom. I was on Raddle before I was on Hexbear. From my experience the mods here are MUCH less "authoritarian" and more tolerant than what I found on Raddle. Not to mention just the friendly vibe here on hexbear is better.

        We gave you a forum on raddle. One of our only rules was that you couldn’t have any authoritarians / marxists as mods. Your founder stopped responding after that.

          sounds pretty authoritarian to outlaw marxists

            We only did that after they kept trying to steal raddle from us and change site policy to allow supporting genocide.

              was it supporting genocide, or debunking CIA propaganda? Hmmmm I wonder which one it was...

              wow so youre trying to control speech? that's pretty authoritarian of you. what happened to the marketplace of ideas? maybe being an absolutist can make one look like a fucking hypocrite.

          I challenge you to read literally any marxist literature ever. Maybe start here since you can't stop conflating authoritarianism with Marxism: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1872/10/authority.htm
