Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. 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!

Fuck I didn't think the libs would be able to do it.. There's reactionaries posting shit like... 'how are we wierd?' And seemingly genuinely butthurt.

They should have been taking this strategy a long time ago instead of always acting mortified. I think chuds relish when they horrifying the people they don't like.

100%, fascism is all about the image of seriousness, solidarity, and the struggle against the perenially weak but ever-existentially-threatening Enemy, and the pageantry and horseshit required just cannot accept ridicule. It's why media like The Producers works at all, and it's weird nobody in power thought to just ridicule these people, but i've been doing it as much as i can in real life and it works every time

It's also why Christofascists were so triggered by the Olympic opening ceremony. Can't have even a whiff of mockery spoil your aesthetic.
