    Got reminded of the Chapo bit about how reactionary comedians get sidetracked by their uncontrollable seething rage at their targets, Orwell undermines his own points about betrayal by making his east european proletariat and peasantry(non-pigs) too stupid to learn more than like 5 letters of the alphabet, seemingly either out of racism or him being too bad of a writer to understand what he's actually signalling with his animal metaphors.

      what the hell was wrong with the image that it crashed the site? Did someone edit the JPG with a hex editor and make it all fucked up or something?

        Some comrade tried to upload a corrupted image of a DPRK soldier to hexbear and it crashed the website.

            The admins also used Juche necromancy to restore the server. 'Tis a double-edged sword.

        They were fucking around with an image that was corrupted and tried to make it as large as possible. Those are the only details I remember. I plan on doing writeups of hexbear lore once bunker mode ends. It’s on the top of my list since I only plan on doing positive stories (no sad shit like people being doxxed or discord drama).

        Lol something along the lines of

        I do self-criticism constantly because I’m trapped in a Maoist cult where comrades (white terrorists) criticize me mercilessly for having a fascist credit card (VISA Silver Signature Rewards)

        They won’t let me order vegan pizza anymore because the phone is fascist and “summoning my pizza slaves with a bourgeois app" is “bad vibes”

    No, I think the best one was directed at Caleb Maupin.

    of course these PMC idealist 'anti-degrowth' (indoor apartheid failchildren terrified of being forced to work outside) would love that soy utopianism about the brotherhood of man.

    Also OP at first I read your username as godzilla_vs_jerboa

    anti-communist white supremacist PMC were doing the baby brained “fren” fascist memes 100 years ago

    wasn't Animal Farm written in 1945, so 70ish years ago? Or is this referring to something else
