    Lol do you people go around linking to your comments on hexbear so your ‘comrades’ can come upvote you? Hexbear comments are always unusually upvoted, even when it’s a controversial topic or if the comment itself is braindead (most of them are).

      It’s both funny and sad that the reddit diaspora culture you’re immersed in has carried over such a tradition of pointless snark and petty posturing that you see people supporting each other’s points and can’t imagine anything but a sinister conspiracy to derail you, the main character.

      Like for the first time in maybe your whole life you’re experiencing social media without a big corporate hand on the cultural scale, and you can either learn or continue to shit your pants amusingly.

        Lmao I’m probably old enough to be your disappointed father.

        It’s well known that some fringe communities coordinate in order to amplify their views. Not really a wild idea.
