there’s a lot of random funny hexbear lore out there, like rock stacking, but that’s not what I’m asking about. I’m more asking about the really huge stuff, like the transphobe purging or the r/vcj onboarding that apparently almost ended the site. has anyone done any good writeups on those? really hoping for one about the r/vcj onboarding but I’ll take any i can get my hands on

        Its also strange. I’m 26 now and cannot imagine even being close friends with a 19 year old. We’d have nothing in common. I don’t wanna talk about moistcritical or whatever streamer garbage drama is happening. I just don’t care.

        The focus on age of consent in the comments is also weird. My area has a 16 age of consent but few people would argue it’d be normal to fuck a high schooler.

      i’ve read this post before, another top tier one but like see liberal socialist is someone who needs a full writeup done on them, from what i can tell they were the main antagonist of the site for nearly half a year before they got banned

        I never minded liberalsocialist but yeah for some reason there was a lot of antagonism towards them. I think probably because they’d constantly enter threads and just not know what they were talking about, and because they explicitly identified as a “liberal.” A lot of people also thought the whole account was a bit.
