I don’t just mean outrage or regular rage, I mean shock that someone was to the left of “legal weed and free college but only for those that operate a successful business for 3 years in a disadvantaged community” top-cop takes.

I think federating took them by surprise, looking back. For about a week, those smug liberals were at a loss to even fathom what Hexbears were saying, and could only chant bullshit about how we’re Russian/Chinese bots.

Sure they still do that but they’ve slightly adapted to Hexbear presence.

    I hate to be this person, but I would highly highly highly recommend listening to Season 2 of the Blowback podcast if you haven’t yet. It goes over the Cuban revolution and explains some of the ‘bloodshed’ that was necessary. It also gives you an idea of what a real revolution looks like (hint: it’s more boring and tame than you’d think). I just started listening to it and it’s literally blowing my mind. Making me feel like a lot of this is more achievable.
