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.

    Being surprised by Hexbear’s takes?

    Well at one point, yes, I did feel genuine surprise that people existed that didn’t like liberalism coming from the left, if that’s what you mean. I learned about that in my 20s.
