I feel like we need to explain dprk-soldier again, amongst other things

    Our most famous meme is that the “40% of cops beat their spouses” study first went viral on r/chapotraphouse, our old subreddit.

    The tag “Genocide Joe,” referring to Joe Biden’s support for the genocide of Palestinian people, may have originated here, from @VILenin@hexbear.net . I can’t find earlier references, but it may just be one of those names that multiple people thought of at once.

    Ask a better storyteller to talk about “Post hog.”

      I’ll chime in a bit on the hog part. In the subreddit days of yore, we’d frequently get brigaded by the likes of r/The_Donald and other fascist hive minds, and when logic failed on them (logic always fails on fascists) we’d run them off with a bit of playful goading of their homophobia by asking them to post a photo of their “hog”, or male sex organs. This led to an increased usage of the strategy of quickly dispatching would-be brigadiers with the phrase of “post hog”. (As a quick aside, one especially clever Chapo once made a post entitled “Post hog” and the body of the post said “ergo propter hog”, which was a silly reference to the logical fallacy “post hoc ergo propter hoc”. Anyway, this is where my username comes from. No clue who that chapo was but I stole it because it was all I could come up with in the moment when making my account.) The hog business eventually led to other hog-adjacent shenanigans, such as responding to fascists with a picture of a pig with poop on its balls. This had a similar effect as the aforementioned homophobia goading.

        Oh god, it’s even better than that. The original “post hog,” actually got a chud to post their hog. Somebody wore a chud down in an argument and eventually asked them to prove something-or-other by linking an image of their junk to reddit, and they went and posted their hog

    AOC is doing what the unions want her to do is from a legendary struggle session during the railroad strike 2yrs ago. A user called liberal socialist started spamming threads with it, eventually getting banned.

    @Bureaucrat@hexbear.net is a shared account. One day, a user just gave it away by posting the password and saying they didn’t want it anymore. Like 20 of us logged into at the same time and found out the site didn’t break. So that’s why you’ll see the pups talking to themselves…it’s multiple people all sharing the same account.

    A real testament to the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism-Moo Dengism the account hasn’t been banned or misused. Just like we share a single, giant, comically large spoon, we share a comically large bit account.

    Ulysses is a former user who has gone offline to touch grass. This isn’t the first time he’s done this. The first time he did, he said it was for opsec reasons. Henry Kissenger died the next day. We suspect Ulysses got him. Ulysses came back some time later, posted for a bit, then deleted his account to go touch more grass. That’s when the CEO got clipped in NYC. We think Ulysses was behind this assassination as well, with Luigi being some patsy chud Ulysses framed so he can continue getting away with it.

    Also don’t forget to put “main” in your post when posting on Main.

    Man how has nobody mentioned “kill all slave owners” yet? That’s the whole reason the chapo subreddit got banned in the first place (ostensibly, of course)

          Birds are cool as hell. I’m a crow guy rn but working my way to other birdwatching. There is just an amazing and kinda exemplary crow community city right in the trees of my neighborhood that I’ve been keeping an eye on for almost 2 years now. We could learn from crows. They’re the real neighborhood, the people are alienated units. I spent a day last year watching them build nests and not only were they strategically building nests so each one could get a view of other nests they were sharing materials, I’d see the same crow bringing stuff to different nests and kinda cross referenced it with what they wee carrying and it was pretty clear they were tsking what was needed to where it was needed even if it wasn’t their nest. They built a community together. Crows are literally comrades.

    Of course, I’ve suggested this and immediately gone off to play games instead of wax lyrical about funny internet posts. But maybe we could have some freeform series of posts or some shit?

    Some hexbearspectives, if you will. Explaining the origins, post hog, ppb, the dope ass bear, president parrot, DPRK soldier, silver legion, upholding tc69 thought, when the federation tap got turned on/preemptive last resort, classic struggle sessions etc
