Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Probably not what it looks like, but still gave me a minute's pause!

I once ran across a korean restaurant called Juche

I still wonder

... can't imagine what else it might be. Not to say that the people spraying it are cool but that's a hell of a coinkydink.

Could it be an attempt at racism against any nearby Koreans?

[–] Blakey@hexbear.net 3 points 15 hours ago

Sure, as I say I wouldn't necessarily expect the tagger/s were putting it there for any good reason, but it would be a pretty extreme coincidence for it not to be a reference to Korea.

It's going to be so funny when internet historians trace back the formation of a new "extremist political movement" to the banning of the CTH subreddit in the same way that we trace back the explosion of the far right from the online-space into meat-space as coming from Gamergate.

Around town here someone stickered GOP with a communist logo. I sigh every time I see a new one. Thankfully they seem to be getting destroyed. Except a annoying one on these movable road blocks.

I promise I'll do everything I can to be a good Canadian and I will defend your border, I swear.

This guy also thinks he's being hunted by a non-profit that provides service dogs to veterans. I think he's just a nuts

what next ... people fleeing the heavily armed and guarded border in an improvised escape craft seeking political asylum from some liberal democratic neighbor to the ~~south~~ north ?
