      In my personal experience, Hexbear is a group of rational actors with strongly held beliefs and 0 tolerance for liberalism. If you aren’t a liberal/conservative/fascist/some other right winger, and you aren’t a left-sectarian, it’s a pretty reasonable space.

      The bulk of the “mythology” surrounding Hexbear comes from people defederating from it and allowing that mystique to fester in their minds. I suggest people just go there and check it out, you don’t have to agree with them, but it does eliminate the idea that they are a toxic instance.
