Oh so I'm not the only one. The users on Hexbear are always angry for some reason.

That's because it's a toxic community

Not from what I've seen, it's just not tolerant of liberalism.

I believed that, myself, for quite some time. I ended up blocking them, however, despite being an anarcho-syndicalist. The instance has very much cultivated a toxic and anti-social culture where the most active users are climbing over eachother for a chance to "dunk" on someone.

Just like right-wingers abuse outrage to get a rush some of the polygonimals clearly have become addicted to aggressive behaviors, with the rush from bullying and dunking being rather apparently more important than leftism. It's a problem.

Additionally, their claims of anti-sectarianism and dialectics do not hold water when they are quick to label dissenting leftists as libs so that they can justify bans for those who don't toe the line.
