Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Fuck I didn't think the libs would be able to do it.. There's reactionaries posting shit like... 'how are we wierd?' And seemingly genuinely butthurt.

They should have been taking this strategy a long time ago instead of always acting mortified. I think chuds relish when they horrifying the people they don't like.

Yeah of course it is. Respectability politics is a fuck and thats why Trump won the first time - because he didn't try to be respectable, he just called em like he sees them.
Triangulators have finally figured this out. You don't need to use 5-dollar words or weird rhetorical phrasings to talk around issues, when the issue is that your opponent is a clown.
