As a programmer, I've honestly met about one colleague who was actually reactionary. The rest have been pretty much fine and on the level. I don't know if it's just American programmers or I'm just a massive outlier, but I've never seen justification for this labelling in my own experiences.

Ah, I see, what queer propaganda will be next? Picking your character's name?!

smh when countries do a slaveowner genocide and eliminate slavery. Why didn't those slaves just peacefully themselves free?

We're mainly waiting for you to say "Yes, I was wrong, Hexbear doesn't shill for Russia/China/DPRK and call them communist utopias, and I guess tankies is kind of a meaningless term.". I think that was the point.
