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!

I agree, but we shouldn't scoff at or mock people just because they hold different views from us. Remember to keep the tone polite and respect those who want to make a little ceremony of it, even if you don't agree!

Inside of you are two antifascists. One is a calm and collected pragmatist, the other is a howling artistic justice berserker. Both are correct.
Me: effortposts about why mercy and rehabilitation are the better path because the alternative is making a literal ocean of blood that regardless of how justified it may or may not have been will make future generations look back in horror and develop counter-revolutionary tendencies simply because following in your footsteps turns their stomach.
Also me: "give me a Death Note and I'll make Stalin look like Sankara"
While it's true that killing capitalists is insufficient to end capitalism, it would be extremely funny if all the billionaires starting dying very public, very ironic deaths relating to their wealth and how they got it.
I did dream once of a billionaire being on his private island and people just decided to ignore him and not come back. Still think there is some poetic justice to that.
Disclaimer: I might've heard too much about uninhabited islands and "consent" before.

Chapos can have a little ceremony as a treat
Just one! No more than that.
If you do it right, you only need one
