Against all odds, the Hexbear Party is the vanguard of a successful revolution, and the users of this site are the Peoples' Commissars of the new government. What would that look like?
I was thinking about the Bolsheviks and how they were basically a bunch of weird nerds (especially Trotsky) who were mostly figuring things out as they went, and I thought that we're not much different.
Every now and then a random person who no one's ever heard of will walk into an important department, pretend to do work for a day or two, and then start screaming the n word for no reason at the weekly soviet. Everyone dragging them out looks utterly confused as they promise to do the same thing next week
There will be an entire labour camp full of people named John Kerry.
Roughly a quarter of the people in the audience are doing the same thing but instead of shouting the N-word they're going to start a fight about something largely inconsequential like birthday cakes or whether it's ethical to wear a toupee
Look if you don't agree that multi-layer cakes are bourgeois decadence available only to first world class traitors then you're a social fascist. I'm 99% sure that Trotsky wrote about this.
Toupees are a tool of PMC labor aristocrats to spread slavery under the banner of the Roman Catholic church to glowie DSA Karens
A few people look confused. Most people just sigh and try to move on as quickly as possible to get back to the meeting
TBH I would vote to force Matt Christman's cushvlogs to become official party documentation
First order of business immediate summary execution of any party member found to have posted on or viewed the wesite hexbear.net
Frankly any random collection of 200 people would be better than the current lead of most bourgeois governments. We’d fuck up and figure it out. Probably get couped pretty quick, just statistically speaking. Straight up, if this somehow happened right this instant by magic we’d quickly fail and if it happened “naturally”, there were de-facto be way better social infrastructure in place to give us a better chance
:sicko-no: fuck around and find out
:sicko-yes: fuck up and figure it out

This is 100% true and I think about it a lot. Western political institutions are basically designed to make sure that the worst possible people for the job end up in government
One of my favourite reformy but intense ideas is to have a proportional system (assign seats by party percentage of the vote), but allot some seats in congress/parliament by sortition according to the number of people who didn't vote.
Low turnout election? Too bad you have a senate of random fucks now.
Chaotic good
But tbh treating public office like jury duty isn’t a bad idea
a senate of random fucks
This would be more democratic than the senate as it currently exists
With the Volcel Vanguard on our side, we can’t lose :volcel-judge:
bruh cats have barbed penises I'm not tryna stop them from fuckin
vanguard will be decimated in weeks
Yeah I would fucking ruin anything you let me touch
:dumpster-fire:
- Infiltrate some chud rebel group
- Suggest they start turning their own public executions into martyrdom while using disparaging language about how dumb their base is
- When they start trying to become martyrs, release audio of those interactions and plant people in the crowd to boo them
- Consent manufactured???
