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).
A tankie is one of the main people who posts in one of the _tank comms
I try my best to be incomprehensible to people in the top half of the hexbear iceberg.
And "Letter from Birmingham Jail" and "Combat Liberalism" were my favorite intro reads.

Main is never the wrong comm
