On this week this niche leftist forum was first launched (its was the 24th or 25th i think) Formed from the Chapotraphouse subreddit remnants that survived the reddit ban over the calls of violence against confederate slave owners, the first admins decided to use Lemmy as its base. Originally called Chapo.chat (ChaCha) Hexbear has grown into one of the biggest instances in the lemmyverse.
In this last 5 years hexbear has survived many diffent events from numerous struggle sessions, mod clique-users conflicts, wrecker incursions from other instances and sites, this image , a decent amount of fedidrama with other instances and the domain crisis, we still thrive with over 5 million comments and 375k posts.
I still continue my dictatorial rule over the general megathread for now over 4 years now, this time locked in the chapo comm so it can be more easily moderated, c/indigenous has now grown to 750 subs which im very happy plus now i take care of the empoc mega which has been pretty chill so far.
I still really enjoy the fedidrama, it fun to see all the fedilibs always thinking about hexbear despide the fact that they are on defederated instances and they can ust ignore us, we live rent free on their minds

Man, I am at a rich kid musician festival in rich people world.
I just want to say all of these kids lives are built upon a lie and have truly never done anything by themselves.
I have come from nothing, I have suffered so much and I still continue to make art. Everything I do is truly my own. Their art doesnt exist, it's all built on a lie, privilege and theft in most cases. Whereas my shit has integrity, its the real deal, you cannot approach me.
I'm not as polished as some of these freaks but I'm infinitely more interested in the art I'm creating and building towards opposed to the foundationally empty, hollow, shallow skindeep bullshit they got.
Eat the rich fuck this place
bitterness is a path through which Reaction may reach your soul
Lol where do you get off trying to tell me how to feel no one asked you
You should totally be happy and stoked that that rich people ruin everything and please dont be mad at me that my parents are rich, im a socialist bro
The fact that that comment has five upvotes tells me alot about this place. Rich, white, non working "socialist"
Nonsense
Sorry its true, if your parents paid for your lessons all of your life, paid for college, sent you to expensive musical festivals and paid ur rent. Your life is a lie. Go donate your privilege to someone else and live a useful meaningful life. Dont go ruin music for everyone else
What could you art possibly hope to wrought from your soul? It sure was hard we didnt vacation more, my parents slighted me in a minor inconvenience or i didnt get into my top choice college
If you have money ur art is unironically worthless. If you have money you should just be good at art, its a natural conclusion with all that extra help. So who cares if you do it or not. Go use that time productively to help other and leave the arts to poor people
The real function of art in a class based society is a stop gap to prevent rich kids doing awful things like become a healthcare ceo, instead they just ruin art for everyone else. It sucks but the alternative is worse.
This will be me in 8 months
Praying for you, stay sane. Remember your art is infinitely more important than those animals
