Huge fan of when he was gone. He wouldn't be so bad if he didn't post literally 50 times a day. There's being a power poster, then there's being annoying. Should've stayed touching grass forever.

And yes, I'm using a throwaway. sus-deep sus-soviet sus-torment

[–] Yor@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

posting shade from a throwaway is just embarrassing. at least own up to it on your main

UlyssesT how does it feel to be a treat yourself? When will you do a treat discourse session on how your posts have in fact become treatified? curious-marx

Can we stop this cringe baitposting? Actively (and honestly seeming deliberately) reviving struggle sessions, especially about people who are here to experience it, is just thoughtless and unfun for all.

You thinks its 'bait posting', but i literally do like the guy and enjoy his posts. id actually call him a friend.

Dont try to paint this as shit stirring when its not.

I dont mind praising the posters who make my day better

I think UlysessT was well served by his time spent touching grass. Before his journey, he had a habit of blowing up on comrades over some really petty stuff, but I've not seen that sort of behavior since he's returned.

That said, I've always agreed with him on like 90% of his very vivid observations and criticisms of reddit dudebro culture, and I love it whenever its some unfortunate federated lemmitor on the business end of one of his very brutal and emojiful dunkings. Glad to see him back.

UlyssesT makes me not feel weird about replying to multiple people in one thread

It is 2023 on Hexbear, people are worshipping UlyssesT for whatever reason.

It is 2024 on Hexbear, people are worshipping UlyssesT for whatever reason.

It is 2050 on Hexbear, people are worshipping UlyssesT for whatever reason.

Whatever is written by a beloved poster is right — such is still the mentality of culturally backward Hexbear peasants. Strangely enough, within the Communist Party there are also people who always say in a discussion, "Show me where it's written by Marx." When we say that a directive of a higher organ of shitposting is correct, that is not just because it comes from "a higher organ of shitposting" but because its contents conform with both the objective and subjective circumstances of the struggle and meet its requirements. It is quite wrong to take a formalistic attitude and blindly carry out directives without discussing and examining them in the light of actual conditions simply because they come from a more notable poster. It is the mischief done by this formalism which explains why the line and tactics of the Party do not take deeper root among the masses. To carry out a directive of a higher organ blindly, and seemingly without any disagreement, is not really to carry it out but is the most artful way of opposing or sabotaging it. chairman

With respect to the power posters keeping this site alive, I refuse to form a parasocial relationship with an anonymous poster on a leftist shitposting/fed honeypot web forum.

What happened, did he leave again?

Pretty wild how the last big "I like UlyssesT" struggle session showed he was lurking. Overall sentiment was negative so he came back to dominate the comms again lol.
