I joined chapo.chat from the discord. I was hopeful that we would be able to bring back some of what the chapo reddit was, a fun place for shitposting and I dunno, maybe praxis? What I see here is just all of the most hardcore people from chapo saying that eveyone who isn't on chapo.chat sucks. We don't have nearly the numbers for that to be a sustainable strategy. Right now, the hot feed is very "not fun". Lots of recrimination of people. A weird amount of fighting about china, and not nearly enough pig poop balls. That is all.
When I used the word spook i meant it's a "geist" as they would say in German. When you call something a spook you mean it's socially imagined and not a real thing. A common example of a spook is borders.
However IIRC spook was a derogatory term used to describe black people like 100 years ago
