I came over here when /r/piracy moved and at first I was confused by hexbear. Over time I've come to embrace the ideas and movement and I appreciate the discussions on here. Sorry if I've frustrated any of you over the past year, I've really had a shift in perspective coming from a ballot box liberal background.

I’ve been totally uninvolved, but it appears the mods, rather than the users, have been the most inflammatory. We welcome all good-faith users, such as yourself heart-sickle

coming from a ballot box liberal background.

That’s where the vast majority of us came from. Really where else could most of us have come from? East Germany? The Moon?

I think I said something vaguely socialist and someone said "go back to chapo" and I was like "what the fuck is a chapo"
