I don't agree with a good chunk of the politics, but I fucking love y'all. No one memes better than you and the .ml folks.

Edit by popular demand: The Chunk

I like government. We are stronger, smarter, and more capable than ever because of it. That being said; There are basically no good governments right now. Yes, some are worse than others, but they all fuck the "little people" over in favor of the ruling class. We are treated as an expendable resource. East vs West just keeps us fractured and weak even though we share a lot of core values.

At any rate: Here's to a new world order, brought to you by the hubris of an Empire. Hopefully this one's better.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Hexbear is one the last truly decent places on the internet.

I don't agree with a good chunk of the politics...

I too hung out in leftist spaces for the giggles, and here I am decades later. So don't worry! You will! sicko-hexbear-woke

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Haha same thing happened to me. I was like, I agree with most of ya'll about A, B, and C but not X and Y, China, and the Russia-Ukraine War. Then I started agreeing with X, too, then Y, a little with the China takes, and now I'm here memeing with ya'll every day wishing death to America lol..

Genuine question: do you think you came around morally or did you flip purely from proximity and exposure? If Hexbear disappeared tomorrow and you switched to Reddit, do you think you'd shift to a lib in a year or two?

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

It's hard to tell because I didn't have the information and you need that to form the correct opinions, but even on Reddit I'd probably find some socialist subs. I'd probably be a bit more lib than I am now, though. Maybe a hasanabi head lol

Funny, I'm the other way round: I agree with the politics, but I hate y'all. Denser than bricks, immune to introspection. Loves to talk past people so you can get that sweet sweet argument dopamine.

I guess not y'all. Some of you are okay. Don't log on to hexbear tomorrow.

Your comments on this thread are both spot on and hilarious (I feel seen)

[–] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We've been isolated for a long time

Like cave fish isolated from light for millenia, evolving in strange and wonderful ways

[–] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

Like that self-sustaining wall of spiders in eastern europe

[–] nay@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What's the stacking rocks thing about??

[–] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago (2 children)

@CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net (I think) made a post about how stacking rocks near waterbeds was bad for the environment and should not be done. A lot of users then did what they always do and escalated a simple factual statement into a strugglesession

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

Yes that was me. Don’t do it stalin-gun-1stalin-gun-2

[–] nay@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

In general if you want to know about site lore/trawl old strugglesessions, just sort by "controversial". Since the search algorithm is fucked + we do not have downvotes anymore, it will show you a bunch of old posts. Bit of fun. There's a big one where everyone was wrong about China.

[–] nay@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I appreciate the tip! Might be fun to go dig through all that at some point

Everybody is hung up on the chunk of the politics part but we exclusively make terrible memes this is slander.

bonfire Resting at Hexbear restores meme satiation to full, but each rest cumulatively increases likelihood of going Sicko

Is it Chunk from Goonies? I promise we won't have a 200 post struggle session about Goonies that gets the thread locked and Carcosa has to make a site-wide sticky post soliciting community feedback that ultimately leads nowhere if you tell the truth.

from each according to their meme-ing, to each according to their meme needs

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

We definitely try

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 week ago

Thanks friend. We do our best, shitposting is our lifeblood

I don't agree with a good chunk of the politics.

Frankly, most of us don't. The Venn diagram of Hexbear user politics is probably spikier than any of us imagine.

[–] Hohsia@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

You’ll come around, it’s inevitable 😈
