The Shadow Over Hexxsmouth
It’s so funny when anyone complains about “echo chambers” when talking about internet communities dedicated to specific themes/topics. If I wanted a dipshit neoliberal yapping I would go back to reddit.
I’ve always thought Innsmouth was cottagecore af so this checks out
No QT deep one gf tho :(

I have never heard someone use such wonderful language to call my mom a race traitor and me an abomination. Also he couldn’t function without an adult woman supervising him.
My favourite bit about Lovecraft was that he voted for Socialist Party, because he absolutely hated the poor and they promised to eliminate poverty.
Whatever gets the poverty eliminated I guess
My favorite is him finding out one of his relatives (his grandmother I think?) was Welsh and completely losing his shit over it, writing numerous letters to his relatives complaining about how they kept this betrayal a secret from him.
If the internet had existed in 1921, Howard would be in the YouTube comment sections on videos with 50 views writing 12 paragraph rage essays over “wokeness” among today’s cat owners.
He also married a Jewish woman and ranted to her about Jewish conspiracy.
It’s that person that thought Putin wants to reinstate the USSR and refused to denounce Israel without equating Palestinian “guilt.”
They wandered into a dunk tank post, debate perverted, and whined on Lemmy.world
I’m dead
#HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yeah there’s a commenter pointing that out in the thread and laughing at how bad the OP was at having a discussion
These are always salt posts by some shithead that got owned
Folks is our reputation improving? I’m seeing pretty even splits in terms of people defending our instance vs. scratched libs. Some even saying we changed their minds on things.

they’re less like the meeting room of a communist party than like the bar where those communists hang out and drink beer, after the meeting is over.
I actually really like this description. I’m amazed at the number of people in this thread who actually somewhat get it. It’s heartening <3
Fucking lol!
Great username there too.

I tried explaining who Zenz is to that user here when one of the websites he used had 5 sources from other different websites who ALL go back to Zenz.
If you’re saying I’m calling their viewpoints crazy, I’m not. I didn’t get a view point besides I’m pig slop, a piece of shit, brainwashed by the empire (whatever the hell that means), stupid, a basement dweller, and today, I think they called me a pervert
TAGLINEThis is my exact same experience. I ask for someone to elaborate on their stance, get told (not accused, told) I’m trolling. Ask for explanation/definition of a concept, get called an idiot shitlib and told to read some theory. Ask for civility, get told I deserve abuse for “endorsing genocide”. (By the way, I absolutely oppose the genocide in Gaza. But I’m a genocide supporter I guess because I won’t flush my vote third party this November.)
tfw Hexbear wants you to vote third party??? Who is advocating for this???
A lot of us do say vote PSL or something, but that’s secondary to not voting red/blue
They always make these wild claims about us calling them all kinds of mean things yet never provide any links of us doing those things.
There’s never been one of these “Hexbear is mentally ill because they disagree with me” threads that hasn’t been result of someone coming here and getting banned after posting in bad faith. – Surprisingly, it seems that the rest of the fediverse is increasingly aware of that.

I am again reminded that all right-wing politics is projection.
I see this posted from time to time and today I finally read through the whole thing. Very compelling and evocative. You see the manifestations of this form in those southern megachurches. Joel Osteen is like a simulacrum of this inversion of religion under the social relations of capital. He has synthesized Christian Faith and Capital Accumulation, creating in effect a Christianity skin suit for this “Real God”, in which to parade it out into the open.
You must sacrifice a portion of your wages to the church in the form of a seed in the hopes that it will one day bloom into a bountiful harvest. It is a similar myth to the one expressed by the preachers of Capital. Sacrifice your time, your money, in service of a future return on your investment. In both, a lack of success is only the manifestation of a lack of sacrifice and commitment to this social order on your part, and in no way a failing of the “gods” for which you are toiling for.
Like a house of mirrors, our social institutions are reflected against the mirror of capitalism, warping their intended form against the shape of capitals demands. The longer you stare into this twisted reflection, the more likely you are to be convinced it to be the true form, until you can no longer recall what the original form was, or that it even existed at all.
