you know, the times everyone comes together to support or celebrate

that post yesterday about TC69 & BrookeBaybee was pretty great 🥰 I wasn't here back in the day to interact with them, but they're legendary, and seeing everyone's delight about their romance was heartwarming

tell me about the ones you hold dear

cuddle

PS: you're the best and I love you ❤️

I love the theorybro-posting threads where some of you just go back and forth on Marx, Lenin, et al. and help others understand theory.

[-] Cowbee@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago

Shout out to the theory-heads heart-sickle

[-] roux@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You were one of the people I was actually thinking about when I made that comment lol. I've tried a few times but gave up after a tourist wasn't using the sludge in their brain pan to try to understand that the modern concept of the nuclear marriage was intended for women to be used as chattel or that having a large amount of children was done partially for free labor exploitation in the homesteader era.

I'm a better learner than a teacher anyway.

I will say, the amount of people that legit understand theory here towers over the users in the lefty reddit spaces. Right now on /r/communismmemes, there is a user claiming that all anarchist are liberals. I tried telling them they are wrong and they immediately downvoted me like a dweeb.

Sorry for the ramble lol.

[-] Cowbee@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Oh shit, really? Thank you! I'm flattered.

I will say, the amount of people that legit understand theory here towers over the users in the lefty reddit spaces.

Certainly helped push me to actually dig into theory more!

immediate downvoting doesn't get anyone anywhere, so glad hexbear removed it. if you would like to understand that person's position, here are a couple formulations of similar claims:

presented with no antagonism, motivated by finding a way out of this mess humanity finds itself in.

I'm having a hard time parsing what Matt is saying because he's so yell-y. What is the basis of his definition of "liberalism" with regard to anarchists? Sorry my ASD brain just isn't computing this.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Idk if kissinger carking it counts, but that was a wonderful moment

Edit: I'm changingy answer to when everyone came to commemorate the loss of comrade biggs biggs. I hadn't been around on hb for that long, maybe a year or so, and biggsposting in the general mega was a whole celebration of the fuzzy friends in our lives. Theres lots of lovely animals in the general mega who we all love

[-] nohaybanda@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

Uphold Marxist-Leninist-Biggs thought

Big ups to comrade Sasha as well

I love seeing hexbears trans their gender after hanging out here for a while hexbear-trans

Put on the cat ears and the thigh highs, comrade gunpointmadeline-staregunpoint-alt

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

I have been looking for some good quality thigh highs the past few days, thanks for the reminder

Can't go wrong with Sock Dreams

[-] context@hexbear.net 25 points 2 years ago

nerd excuse me, fam, but actually they're called snuggle sessions in order to rhyme more closely with maoist "struggle sessions"

[-] the_itsb@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

you are absolutely right – post edited 🥰

[-] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

That one time when Kissinger died. The way we all came together to celebrate was beautiful. I love you comrades! juche-tears

[-] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago

The Paris Commune.

[-] Cowbee@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

Seeing [Funded] in Mutual Aid posts is always wonderful to see.

[-] the_itsb@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

I was thinking of some of those when I made this post!! they always thrill me 🥰 the power of comradeship

[-] Cowbee@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

I know! It's always great to see comrades helping others out.

[-] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

Every time I get depressed and write out a long live journal blog post, I get a ton of support and love and it always helps me deal with shit. It happens like every other month so I appreciate it.

[-] the_itsb@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

fuckin same, dude meow-hug the support here is incredible and invaluable

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Not hexbear proper, but all the times I've tuned into hextube, the chat is such good vibes.

[-] the_itsb@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

it's very fun! if Trump and Kamala go on Rogan, I'm hoping we watch it together possum-party

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

I got a a couple of my own posts that come to mind.

This post of a screenshot I took just moments before CTH got banned on reddit

https://hexbear.net/post/55327

And this one about that time we destroyed a terf app and practically ruined this lady's whole career

❤️❤️❤️ cuddle ❤️❤️❤️

you gorgeous person, you're the only person who gave me the precious wholesome reading material I crave ❤️❤️❤️ thank you, thank you

diving in rn

edit: wow, do you know the story behind this? there was a post in /r/conspiracy that leaked that a bunch of subs were about to be nuked??

also, so eternally jelly of everyone who caught the fuckin life raft, why did I have to touch grass during those crucial days

edit p2: okay, now I've gone through that second post, which was an all-timer 🤩

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I remember it vaguely and it was tied to an incredible neoliberal think piece about us

https://networkcontagion.us/reports/network-enabled-anarchy/

Drinking game challenge: take a shot every time the phrase "anarcho-socialist extremism" is used and try not to die.

Also that is one of the corrections of all time. They had to issue a retraction after comparing us to fucking ISIS, but just changed the table to say Jihadist groups.

Also that ? is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

Also here is a screenshot someone took while the trans thank you/we about to get banned thread was still cached. This was the last thing I saw on the old subreddit, I was posting in that thread when I refreshed the page and it was gone.

beautiful 😍 thank you!

Acceptable background music, Power Cuddle.

[-] lilypad@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

Half the convos in the trans mega come to mind. From supporting and listening to each other, to talking about fun queer games, to heavy flirting, and of course accelerating each others gender ^^
