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!

IMO this kind of reflexive and unconditional individualism is one of the core causes of Western social rot.
Yup turns out having a majority of your population think "it's me verses society" isn't great for that society.
Extra hilarious how Americans will tell you about how it's a part of Chinese culture to fuck other people over to get ahead as they raise millions of people out of poverty every year.
Meanwhile in America people don't support universal Healthcare because other people might benefit from it.
I think so too, and judging by the "no veggies at dinner, no bedtimes" outbursts that blow up around here sometimes, Hexbear isn't immune to it either.
Do people on Hexbear post that stuff unironically? I think I've only seen it dunked on.
Not in those exact words, no, but one example I can immediately think of was the cairn struggle session where some contrarians said they'd be pleased to stack rocks (at the expense of local environments and their ecosystems) just to stick it to the "scolds" was in the same spirit, just spiteful petty bullshit for freedom's sake.
The "homework is slavery" struggle session was particularly embaressing.
