I dont know… with all the war in russia ukraine, then taiwan crisis… all this make me misses 2019 to early 2022 Genzedong Era OG subreddit… god those were the glory days. I still remember that ‘uyghur bullshit masterpost’, then the flares. And back then was some good shitposting bout china and based commies state (which we still do, but it doesnt feel the same to me as on the OG sub)… then the flares ‘ximp’ ‘shitpost maybe’ etc… the automod respons…and also lib cringe weekend… but those days are over… and boy do i misses those days… 😔

    I miss the abrasiveness, and the whole “triggering the libs” (but in a commie way) that we used to do – just the general energy, like a worksite mixed with a high level college course. Most online political spaces have a pessimistic feel to them. R/genzedong didn’t. It seemed like we were part of a much larger ecosystem then, with Haz, Maupin and that whole circle not yet having thrown in clearly for the MAGA camp.

    What I don’t miss is the low-level hornyposting (though it was fun when a lib got caught out), and the near-constant discussions about porn and sex work. At a certain point, these happened almost weekly, and it was always a raging dumpster fire.

    Lib cringe weekend was epic, and we should bring it back.
