I think it's more interesting to have less rote responses, though some people totally have a ppb coming. If we reach for "ppb" or "hog out" or whatever at first sight of conflict, it's reduced to nothing better than a verbal tic and a genre of spam. It's better for the influence of our instance on the others to have more personalized responses (and sometimes even engaging!)

True, people are too unimaginative with their bullying. Ppb is largely played out already, we need to be on the forefront of new developments in lib bullying.

we have become soft and stale cooped up in our cave

we must emerge to feast on new flesh and grow strong once more

Hopefully some of that pent off energy is tempered after a week or two of 500+ comment China struggle sessions to establish where everyone stand

If we aren't isolated by then, I'm hoping that the liberals will realize that they actually need to come up with some substance in their criticisms instead of relying on silly redditisms

there's currently a struggle session about to hit 600 comments in c/cth, I'm fairly certain it has a good chance of hitting 1k comments by the end of the week

Def, I'd prefer quality over quantity

I mean yes, me too, but I also don't want to annoy Lemmygrad with too much ppb because some of them don't like it.

And I want to respect Lemmygrads wishes because they've been super nice to us.

Maybe just keep ppb to libs that come to us?

[–] [email protected] 43 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I cannot compute the idea of ppb not being funny.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 year ago (2 children)

apparently it's huge for them, so that might be part of it.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago (2 children)

pig poop balls more like BIG poop balls pigpoop

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 year ago (2 children)

One of them is significantly larger

I'm sorry to the people who don't like it (not the chuds) but this is still just the absolute funniest fucking thing in the world so I can only apologize with my words but not my heart.

Browsing from a mobile app, I know exactly what they mean.

It gets exhausting to browse threads with all the emojis if they aren't the proper size. The gross-out factor of ppb compounds it all

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

It's conceptually kind of funny but for some people the gross element is outweighs that

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

PPB is ours, we should keep it close and cherish it at home

Every PPB is sacred

This is the way.

But yknow, PIGPOOPBALLS is still funny as fuck.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It's too small, it doesn't have the same shock value

and we can no longer make it bigger with markdown angery

linking to hexbear.net/PPB stays winning

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Look owl, I just want people to fight more. Fight over here, fight over there, its all fair game as far as Im concerned. Wherever there are liberals someone should be there bullying them.

it makes the most sense that way IMO, but I'm ambivalent. I'd focus more on dunks, and then insults for those who are clearly just committed reactionaries. PPB for dipshits who wander into our comms is perfection though

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Is it funny? Abso-fuckin-lutely.

Does it also turn those on the edge away from socialism and solidify their stereotypes of us? Also yes.

Just keep that in mind, and reserve the nuclear dunking for those who are acting in bad faith.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Actually I think bullying people makes them more susceptible to self crit and therefore helps socialist movements more than placid civility

So far I haven't been impressed with the reddit-logo tier liberals that wander into here expecting "hello fellow progressive, wouldn't it save the world if only we had legal weed and free college?" And maybe expect circlejerks about how Drumpf is finished any day now. pathetic

If they come here, absolutely

Otherwise be chill about it, but also try to bait them here sicko-yes

Next GWAR album cover looking good.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I agree, but the posts need more pepe-silvia flavor

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

yes honestly watching them be absolutely befuddled is funnier than your average ppb. And they don't even have jesse-wtf to express it

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, my favorite responses today has been:

WTF does this even mean

and

You people are very confusing.

I never realized until just now that the guy is wearing a zip-up collared shirt.

A plaid collared shirt. With a zipper. As the fastening.

IDK, I think the liberals are getting enough push back.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Liberals cannot ever get enough push back, thats my philosophy
