    Just keep dropping this link on the hexbears whenever you can:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests_and_massacre

    They’re either clueless teenagers that only know the things they’ve learned from TikTok or working for whatever the Chinese equivalent of glavset is. Either way, they tend to make themselves scarce when that link is dropped on them.

      Why would we make ourselves scarce when some one drops a link to the wikipedia article on Tiananmen Square?

      OOOH. A link to wikipedia. The forbidden knowledge!

      porky-scared porky-scared-flipped

      It’s so scarey.

      But on the other hand, the tanks didn’t even run over that guy (CW): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6F2AqzdXuI&pp=ygUhdXMgcG9saWNlIHJ1bm5pbmcgb3ZlciBwcm90ZXN0b3Jz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-W-7WPWfE4&t=18s https://www.youtube.com/shorts/L-pJTOzyEkI

        Technically, Tank man ran over the Tank. Easy to see how people got that turned around.

      Imagine thinking the most Redditor-ass reply of linking to Wikipedia of all places on a topic they are already familiar with is useful. Do you believe the Reddit myth about wumaos being shot whenever they see the phrase “Tiananmen Square Massacre” is true?

      This is either a bit or a masochist lol, just straight up inviting the dogpile.

        Yeah I get like 50 responses to my comments everyday… been reported as a bot multiple times. Given their tactics, my suspicion is the hexbear is a 50 cent army hive, but haven’t confirmed this yet. Could be just kids that spent too much time on TikTok that don’t know how terrible the PRC is. Or a mix of both. But likely just 50 cent army.

        But meh, if it’s wasting more of their time than mine, we’re winning.

          Sir please keep the good name of Mr. Cent out of your Liberal mouth. .50 Cent got shot 9 times and recovered to be both a great rapper and the protagonist of a really bad X-box shooter. You accomplishments pale in comparison with his career.

          ‘Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty and the pig likes it.’

          I hope you’re having as much fun as we are!
