I don't see the "apply to make next post" post but I apply I promise to make you all regret it or at least try to do so

Someone float that idea to him quick

Pretty much. Whether they agree with it or not, Marxist analysis is the logical next step/continuation to the works of the classical liberal economists. Without being able to so much as acknowledge and take it into consideration, mainstream western economists are basically just a bunch of hucksters thinking up vibes and catchphrases to whitewash capitalism's natural descent back into the material equivalent of feudalism (which it never left for much of the world)

Thoughts from posting on tracha as usual are- we should have a watch party sometime on the hextube traa. Anyone got ideas/times/want to figure stuff out? Anyways figured should toss the idea here so it sticks around

Was making a mod application (still might) and forgot about it/stalled as also wasn't sure I'm up to it/doing my own stuff but figured I hit gold with this: (might post in a genthread idk)

Personally (I know I've been making a few posts of such) I think hexbear should do more group activities- the kino sessions are already nice as is tracha, etc... but I'm very much of the "let 1000 flowers blossom" mentality. the world is large enough for many social circles/webs without requiring splintering, and they can all compliment each other, etc. etc... basically I think that we should branch out (have a hexbear + grad exercise, art, idk. group or groups? more gaming sessions (though then I'm not an opsec nerd) like the webfishing or hexcraft ones? I imagine there's probably a hexbear (non tracha/trans exclusive) matrix so not reccing that but if not there should probably be one.

There should probably be some megathread for socializing (non org, mostly "non political" for all that is impossible, etc) and various specialized matrix/etc groups (since societal alienation is a very common thing and hex/the grad are basically the best online repositories I know of of people who are... generally at least not ghouls and halfways decent) or activities to present themselves or be organized. things like the aforementioned art, exercise, etc. groups, or joining for different games (like webfishing), or creating other specific hobby oriented or motivation/etc oriented groups... etc. there are limitations (IMO) to the extent of community engagement that can be done on Hex after all due to opsec, yet even if things may not be on Hex they can be adjacent to it (or a bit further removed/plausibly deniable to varying degrees) and benefit Hex as well, especially as there is what I think could be called a ever-worsening and particularly massive "crisis of alienation" among most (actual) leftists, which we (leftists in general) should probably seek to address by creating such plausibly deniable and yet principled/non-ghoulish spaces.

Asmongold stream but it's just a AI-generated loop of a vaguely cryptid figure roaming an absolutely filthy neckbeard nest, incoherent mumbling interjected with "lemme nut" and "oh no, woke DEI"

we've seen what lengths americans would go through to enable a clueless entitled white man to win over an intelligent and accomplished minority woman

TBF, this is exactly how most Democrats/libs in the west constantly describe Kamala (and Trump). Meanwhile Trump hasn't even faced off with Sheinbaum yet AFAIK

What does it say of people, when their kids pursue such different paths and beliefs and generally come to the conclusions that their parents are pieces of shit?

Turns out, a genocidal, racist, bigoted and hyper-exploitative settler-society (Isntreal and AmeriKKKa and much of the west, really) tends to have that experience. Who woulda thought...

Fingers crossed, hopefully Activision can actually be done for. That they managed to piss off the bottom-of-the-barrel slop crowd (COD gamers) in such a way is nice, anyways

Welcome to the "likes hearing themselves type /probably also talk" crowd! :D

As someone who also loves them clicks

So are you, totally glorp'ov'ly!

Well the lawsuit (and specifically this post) got me finally looking up what the whole drama was (heard people talking but well then)

What a fucking banger (Not Like Us). What a fucking glorious roast.

Nocturnal, and with the eye markings... could this have been a distant ancestor or relative?

Fair enough, admittedly your comment wasn't assumed to be referring to Sheinbaum by anyone FWIW (the wording made it sound more like Trump v. Kamala)

No offense (offense) but lmao

Also, for all his infinite issues (and the fact both are undeniably terrible, bigoted, and genocidal people no decent person should ever support) Trump is if nothing else more ""intelligent"" and even- ergh- ""accomplished"" than Kopmala (the bar is in hell for both of them). What exactly has Kopmala done to her name other than terrorize poor people and minorities? And don't tell me that she got her role for her accomplishments or whatever (POC and a woman myself and let's not kid ourselves here lol) or that she did anything in her role (not that Biden did either, probably).

Perhaps also culturally within its identity- and the fact half of the US is essentially just stolen Mexico, and their proximity to and close interactions with the YanKKKee devil. These combined with the direct proximity (border) and sheer size means what problems the US stirs up in Mexico will find their way back home (IMO).

If anything, at this point I'm wondering when Russia will do the not only justified, but quite probably necessary thing. It's only a matter of time, and I imagine their stalling is only because they will be in a better position, the longer they wait (in the eyes of the world, in their own domestic production/support/etc).

Western imperialism always was unjustifiable and endlessly monstrous, but at this point I believe it will have to unilaterally die sooner than later- because it will kill us- the entire human species- off and is racing to do so otherwise. The western system is not only a dead end, it only offers death and worse. If you ask me it's 100% either death to America and the west (the regimes and socioeconomic system) or the west will ensure the death of all of humanity.

I think we should make a tracha-lite (tracha but less chaotic/probably with a spray bottle to keep users like me contained). There's been at least a few people (4~ come to mind) I've seen and talked to who said normal tracha can be overwhelming or intimidating.

I know we talked about that a bit in the tracha mods chat, but figure that tossing the idea here would probably also help it not be drowned out by other chats (might make a post or idk later as well, idk)

Good catch, they always pull shit like this.
