She asked me “what do you like to do for fun” and I said “ever hear of Hexbear.net?” She just stared at me.

“Oh yeah well it’s like this really niche communist website. Actually ever hear of the podcast Chapo Trap House? So it started out as the subreddit for the podcast, but the podcast hated the subreddit actually, then we got banned for saying slaveowners should be killed. So then we were on discord for a while and then we moved to our own website where we had endless struggle sessions about China and John Kerry. Yeah it’s like this terminally online communist website for people who would be posting on Twitter or Reddit except they hate Twitter and Reddit so they post there. Also it’s communist. Did I mention I’m a communist?”

She called me a liberal and told me to read theory, then made me pay for her dinner for being a “PMC labor aristocrat cosplaying at revolution” before walking out on me. Sucks man. Then the waiter tried to redpill me on the manosphere.

        We're all trapped here, but at least we're trapped here together.

        I kinda wish I was still on my original account. I had a bit where I never marked any of my messages as "read", I bet it would be at 9999+ by now.
