"hexbear is fediverse 4chan!!!"

has the largest weekly trans megathread in the entire fediverse, a supermajority of non-cishet users, aggressively bans racism, bigotry and transphobia on sight, has hard-coded mandatory pronoun tags

Lmao okay, sure bud

4chan has a massive trans community and aggressively racisms and bigotrees on sight. Its the other end of the horseshoe

Ok that's not really relevant unless you consider the lgbt community on 4chan to not be extremely bigoted or you consider hexbear to be extremely bigoted.

do you consider hexbear to be extremely bigoted? if so, against who?

Reactionaries are a protected class.

No I don't consider them bigoted hence why I put them on the Otherside of the spectrum
