For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

Engagement = money, I'd bet
Yeah and I think parasocial content creator stuff is (or can be) a bidirectional relationship. At the very least I'm sure it feels good to have thousands of people affirm your ideas, especially if your ideas are stupid and alienate the people in your real life.
Yeah, I listened to him starting around like Linux Action Show episode 2. It's crazy that that's almost 20 years ago now.
