Hey fellow, I'm supporting the good will in here despite what many other instances think and you've attached their conclusions to me.

I thought I was very clear on what I meant with the progress of t_d. I replied to someone about it more and will paste a link to that.

Edit: I couldn't find how to get the home instance link. Hopefully this works https://lemm.ee/comment/3342948

I had already read that comment.

Remember how t_d was a tongue in cheek in-joke in the beginning until it grew and actually drew in users that actually were all in with the cult without a hint of self awareness and became what you described?

I'm not sure what you're even referring to. Could you please point out what exactly the in joke is on Hexbear that you're criticizing?

That was expanded a bit in the second paragraph. It's also worth it to explore how leftists on other instances have described the situation. That's actually better than relying on my third party relaying broken telephone summaries.

Regular prole scrollers won't get "stalin is good because he's handsome" even though we might have a taste for edgier humor

You mean this? That's exactly the kind of thing I was getting at when I talked about the DPRK. That's not edgy humor, we think Stalin was good because he and the USSR saved the world from fascism.

Many of us do also believe he was handsome, but it's certainly much easier to find someone handsome when you already like them for other reasons.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
