    When liberals stick their fingers in this beehive is when you folks are at your absolute finest. Federation has been awesome. I know not everyone likes it and I know arguments online aren’t THAT important but there is such a clear difference between sides when the Hexbear posting batallions engage with the liberal interlocutors.

    I remember reading someone somewhere say years ago that to the extent debating online means anything it is for the people reading the exchange and not so much the parties debating. The lurkers if you will. Well I am a lifelong lurker because I think I recognized before I had the vocabulary that a lot of posting on social media ultimately amounts to alienation from creative labor. The feeling of bleakness from that and a sort of shame about the idea of trying to garner attention towards myself have kept me from ever being a committed poster.

    This space has been the only time I have ever felt like it’s really worth being a part of this.

    The way in which you folks have honed your rhetorical edges against each other and practice libs in the dunk tank really shows. Those muscles are strong and they hate that to outside observers you are almost always the more cogent and coherent side.

    But the absurdity and humor are even more potent weapons because it breaks the tension and gives people room to examine preconceived notions. There is a degree to which inspiring a laugh is almost like a concession of a point. They cannot stand that we’re more factually grounded AND funnier!

    All this is a long winded way of saying that they cannot stand that you folks are funnier, more grounded, and have way better emojis.

      4chan used to be afraid of CTH. Glad to see we're carrying on that tradition here.

        Never got to see those threads but was lucky enough to lurk on the main sub during chapos prime time, truly a time to be alive.

          made me feel like being in the middle of a huge, supportive moshpit where everyone is being a bit rough, having fun, and absolutely fucking up any nazis that get near

        I've seen this so many times and yet, every time I read it its like the first time all over.

          Proof that streamer debatebros are wrong and the real means of victory over online fash dipshits was always posting pigpoopballs and telling them they're going into the Tito Cuck Pit

            I say we do.

            I don't mess with chapos anymore just not worth it. They're actual fucking psychopaths. I wanted to debate them wasn't even memeing that much and they dug up everything from my post history and kept pressuring me to post pictures of my dick. Fuck with any of the dumbass political boards on reddit but I would stay away from chapo. they don't even get mad, they just waste your time and degrade you and some of them are real fucking psychopaths and I don't know what they might do nor do I want to

      lol I never thought of it like a training ground. It just feels good to put my frustration into words and/or read the dunk of someone who already put in that work.

      As much as I like this, I do understand why someone replied to you with a PPB due to the unfortunate reality:

      For every one of us who have studied the posting blade, there are two vulnerable comrades who will be subjected to libs tearing the mask off so fast they scalp themselves in their fervour to bully our trans, queer and enby posters to death.

      It fucking sucks, but we can't trust them (libs) to be better and we can't sacrifice our comrades for privileged posting enjoyment

      They're completely out of their element. Liberals are so mad that it's not Reddit and there's no mod looking over their shoulder to delete our posts to protect their feelings when we dump a massive 7 paragraph essay on them shredding every stupid belief they have and have been allowed to repeat unrestricted for years on Reddit.
