MAINbe this is the wrong comm for this but I just wanted to say I've never found an online space that has as deep of an internal culture as this one. This place has the 21st century equivalent of a fucking oral tradition. This place has heroes and myths and legends. New youngling users are told the stories of heroic posters from past generations. Memes live and die a thousand inane lives until any memory of their origin is lost. has always been and always will be.
Every now and then I see someone reference the and I have a moment of existential dread as I realize I've lurked this space or its various iterations for a significant portion of my lifespan. I tear up as I remember that the first time somebody here called me a and told me to read theory was many years ago on a different site. I light a candle for the posters martyred in the fight against slaveowners.
Anyway whatever I'm drunk and having a nostalgic moment. Death to the tank comms and long live c/main. You can use this thread to remember the posters of ages past (unless they've returned).
I try my best to be incomprehensible to people in the top half of the hexbear iceberg.
A tankie is one of the main people who posts in one of the _tank comms
And "Letter from Birmingham Jail" and "Combat Liberalism" were my favorite intro reads.

Main is never the wrong comm
