Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

They really are just trying to force people to get Covid, huh?

According to the most normal leftist that started that thread last New Years, if you don't kiss a stranger, you're embarrassing leftism. grillman corona

I loved the part where Marx said: from each according to their viral load.

Leftism is about normalcy and not embarrassing your in-group. The more normal and not embarrassing the more leftist it is. grillman

The final form of being obsessed with optics.

Like, I get not acting irl the way we act on niche websites, BUT damn that sounds like it was a wild post.

BUT damn that sounds like it was a wild post.

The user that posted it, as far as I can recall, never showed up again, unless they were one of the mysterious accounts that woke up (some new, some with months of post history gaps before that) in the hours and days that followed after just to howl with rage and bully "shut-ins" that didn't like the message.

Some people stockpile rockets to free their home, that loser stockpiled usernames to fire at an already vulnerable group.

What a dick.

Thanks for the lesson in Hexbear History (Hexstory?).

You're welcome; it kind of sucked to live it. Some long time users outright quit over it after being bullied by mysterious new/lurker accounts and I still miss them.

That’s the sad thing about small forums like this, sometimes it’s hard to refind people (esp. if good opsec).

I hope they refind the place and see your comment.

It gave me some hope when I saw some people second their disgust for that New Years thread while stating that they were there, almost stayed entirely away, and were on new accounts. I didn't pry, but I'm glad some anonymous people came back that seemed pretty cool.
