Best thing to ever happen to us. It feels so nice being able to say that billionaires should get the without getting banned immediately for being "uncivil".

Kill all slavers.

It's wild that they still allow /r/trueanon and /r/shitliberalssay. Both have the same tone of posting and most of the same posters. Chapotraphouse hit a unique nerve with reddit.

And death to slave masters.

I legit had liberals on a “politically neutral” Discord server telling me to “go back to Chapo” in 2023. It’s clear it has left an imprint on their online psyche

God, was it only five years ago. I feel like I've been here forever

"promoting hate" is apparently "I don't think slaveowners should be alive."

Similar story to today where "promoting hate" is "I don't think killing children is okay"

I'm glad y'all eventually joined the federation experiment - Lemmy would be almost entirely libs without the hexbears. Grad and .ml would be overwhelmed.

it's ok they banned the already-empty /r/the_donald as consolation

Happy Independence Day!

been here since the ban (on different accounts) kill all slave owners

Death to slave owners.

Death to slave traders.

Death to blood thirsty fascist

Death to their enablers

They genuinely thought kill slave owners meant, we will kill you for you 401k.

i got banned from reddit 3 months ago? for writing "luigi" and nothing more on a PGE rate increase post in my local sub

They did us a favor

Honestly, probably the best thing to happen to us. Look at us.

Nope it was last year, as was covid and the first Trump/Clinton election

sorry to burst your bubble but half a decade has not passed without me realizing it

Alt title: history started 5 years ago on this day

On the dawn of June 30th, r/Chapotraphouse arose to the thunder-burst of “Check out this dope ass bear!” What is the Hexbear, that sphinx so tantalizing to the bourgeois mind?

"“The proletarians of reddit,” said the Central Committee in its manifesto.“ amidst the failures and treasons of the ruling classes, have understood that the hour has struck for them to save the situation by taking into their own hands the direction of posting.... They have understood that it is their imperious duty, and their absolute right, to render themselves masters of their own destinies, by seizing upon the reddit power.”"

And from its ashes, the greatest website was born

I remember being part of a chapo discord that sucked tbh. Luckily someone posted about chapo.chat as an alternative to the sub. I was never super active in the sub. I didn't even listen to the pod until about a year before covid. I'm glad I found this site.

Apparently FULLCOMMUNISM is still around even though was guaranteed around the same time. It doesn't even have the cringe message saying you should go look at Victims of Communism either.

I was out getting lunch on my first day back from an 8 day work week. I checked my phone to if anything good had been posted to chapotraphouse3 when i saw that everyone had flooded over to blackwolffeed. Took me a minute to realize that we had posted too hard and now everyone was looking for a new home.

Then i clicked off and started browsing twitter.

You know that one guy from way back, uuuuuh I think his name was ah John Brown?

Yeah so it turns out he didn't do anything wrong.

I was watching The Godfather part 2 (after really loving part 1) when I noticed that it was banned. It really ruined my experience watching the movie

Very thankful I saw a chapo.chat link on a different subreddit within a week of the ban and got to lurk here for a few years. I definitely would not have found this place since I'm always online but in a different way than a lot of you guys.

Anyway, happy anniversary.

A lot has changed in those years....
