I feel like we need to explain again, amongst other things
Man how has nobody mentioned “kill all slave owners” yet? That’s the whole reason the chapo subreddit got banned in the first place (ostensibly, of course)
that’s really part of the true origins: kill all slave owners, john brown did nothing wrong, spez is a paedophile who dreams of owning slaves, etc
@Bureaucrat@hexbear.net is a shared account. One day, a user just gave it away by posting the password and saying they didn’t want it anymore. Like 20 of us logged into at the same time and found out the site didn’t break. So that’s why you’ll see the pups talking to themselves…it’s multiple people all sharing the same account.
A real testament to the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism-Moo Dengism the account hasn’t been banned or misused. Just like we share a single, giant, comically large spoon, we share a comically large bit account.
Ulysses is a former user who has gone offline to touch grass. This isn’t the first time he’s done this. The first time he did, he said it was for opsec reasons. Henry Kissenger died the next day. We suspect Ulysses got him. Ulysses came back some time later, posted for a bit, then deleted his account to go touch more grass. That’s when the CEO got clipped in NYC. We think Ulysses was behind this assassination as well, with Luigi being some patsy chud Ulysses framed so he can continue getting away with it.
Also don’t forget to put “main” in your post when posting on Main.
Went back at the oldest posts and This is where it started I think
This seems to be the only comment older than that post though the search function is a bit weird at timesFrom that first thread someone had a really fun idea we should do sometime
Dang, no outdoor cat posting yet?
That must have taken a lot of restraint.
We need a !lore comm where we have the source for every emoji, every tagline, even a bunch of the past pivots/struggle sessions/rule changes.
Let them discover outdoor cats and other sessions the natural way - By being confused by an obscure reference.
You’re also going on the iceberg now
Mr. Stark I don’t feel so good
Can the /slop /dredge_tank strugglesessions be part of the indoctrination or would it be better if we pretended that never happened?
We should have a hall of fame for legendary posters. It can only be retroactive, no active posters allowed.

Our most famous meme is that the “40% of cops beat their spouses” study first went viral on r/chapotraphouse, our old subreddit.
The tag “Genocide Joe,” referring to Joe Biden’s support for the genocide of Palestinian people, may have originated here, from @VILenin@hexbear.net . I can’t find earlier references, but it may just be one of those names that multiple people thought of at once.
Ask a better storyteller to talk about “Post hog.”
I’ll chime in a bit on the hog part. In the subreddit days of yore, we’d frequently get brigaded by the likes of r/The_Donald and other fascist hive minds, and when logic failed on them (logic always fails on fascists) we’d run them off with a bit of playful goading of their homophobia by asking them to post a photo of their “hog”, or male sex organs. This led to an increased usage of the strategy of quickly dispatching would-be brigadiers with the phrase of “post hog”. (As a quick aside, one especially clever Chapo once made a post entitled “Post hog” and the body of the post said “ergo propter hog”, which was a silly reference to the logical fallacy “post hoc ergo propter hoc”. Anyway, this is where my username comes from. No clue who that chapo was but I stole it because it was all I could come up with in the moment when making my account.) The hog business eventually led to other hog-adjacent shenanigans, such as responding to fascists with a picture of a pig with poop on its balls. This had a similar effect as the aforementioned homophobia goading.
Oh god, it’s even better than that. The original “post hog,” actually got a chud to post their hog. Somebody wore a chud down in an argument and eventually asked them to prove something-or-other by linking an image of their junk to reddit, and they went and posted their hog
Screenshots from 4chan saying “do not post on chapo. they don’t get baited. they don’t even get triggered. they just aggressively ask for pictures of your junk. honestly i feel really uncomfortable now.”
To add to this, one of the commenters in that thread found his Grindr account almost immediately because the username was the same as his Reddit account. This incident predates the mods locking the subreddit the day that it hit 69,420 subscribers; I think we were in the high 40k range?
it isn’t okay to close the sub for a joke.
I was so annoyed about that lock lol
I can’t believe we’re getting the “closing the sub for a joke isn’t okay” struggle session ityool 2024
Me too. CTH was about the only relief valve that I got after dealing with my rabid Trumper coworkers. Where the hell was I going to go, Twitter?
It was funny as hell looking back though
subreddit got banned around 150k or 200k i think? i found the sub at 16k.
Sub went downhill after 16k users
Sub went downhill after users
Uphold CTH3 thought
I was there for that. It was extremely funny. The username of the chud was something like “jaredsw” which means there’s probably some guy from the southwest named Jared and I’ve seen his dingus.
I hate to break this to you, but that username is probably a reference to “Jared at Subway.”
spend enough time in the southwest and you’re gonna see a jared’s dingus. it’s inevitable.
And in some cases, even desirable
R/cth popularised “ok boomer”, though I think the demographics since then have massively shifted
Kissenger getting killed by one of us is fun too
This one needs an additional return and leaving
just reminded myself that i literally got an emoji created because of how often i pointed out the officer down emoji was broken
Same goes for this one someone pointed out it was messed up after an update and we got this commemoration
nice I should be part of this now
my baby
Gotta update it though ofc
Awww, now I miss Enver. Also, BASED_BALL is redundant with the outdoor cat struggle session.
Edit: And it’s missing “UlyssesT killed Kissinger”
I have struggled for years to remember Prince Kropotkin’s name.Thabk you SO much, I can finally sleep
pootr kropotkin or someone else?
u/Prince_Kropotkin was a notorious poster on various leftist subreddits. I remember him mostly for posting an actual gameplan to persuade liberals on the evils of capitalism, but he often got in arguments with leftists as well, about the usual sorts of things leftists argue about.
huh, sounds like a real type
AOC is doing what the unions want her to do is from a legendary struggle session during the railroad strike 2yrs ago. A user called liberal socialist started spamming threads with it, eventually getting banned.
Also the photos of her crying at the border are basically a meme at this point considering all the compromise she’s done since.
Do you disagree?
power dynamics
Who has the iceberg? I feel like we could do another
But also: shrekland.net
I’m so upset that I never got the chance to not post on CTH3
More tankie hexbear
More like more ultra chapo lmao

Oh my god, I’ve left this account basically idle since the sub was banned (as it should have been but for the wrong reasons, as I predicted) and haven’t seen the volcel police in a long time. Good (?) shit.
