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!

A.R. Moxon:
"It’s best to understand that fascists see hypocrisy as a virtue. It’s how they signal that the things they are doing to people were never meant to be equally applied.
It’s not an inconsistency. It’s very consistent to the only true fascist value, which is domination.
It’s very important to understand, fascists don’t just see hypocrisy as a necessary evil or an unintended side-effect.
It’s the purpose. The ability to enjoy yourself the thing you’re able to deny others, because you dominate, is the whole point.
For fascists, hypocrisy is a great virtue — the greatest."
I notice there's no mention of class in this
It looks like it comes from one of those conspiracy theory boards where they are obsessed with the gubmint taking away their guns. I've seen plenty of similar images with an implication that "taking away the guns" is the final "step" before absolute tyranny.
I mean, executing a legal carrying person is part 1 of "disarm the citizen"
Which “key individuals” have been targeted? This would imply political opponents or union leaders or something. I know a couple of low ranking dems got clipped but I’d hardly call them key individuals.
