Huge fan of when he was gone. He wouldn't be so bad if he didn't post literally 50 times a day. There's being a power poster, then there's being annoying. Should've stayed touching grass forever.

And yes, I'm using a throwaway. sus-deep sus-soviet sus-torment

[-] Yor@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago

posting shade from a throwaway is just embarrassing. at least own up to it on your main

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

The posting is habit forming and I really, really should get back on task.

It's been an easygoing time of the year for me but still, you have a point about posting too much.

[-] DogFace@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago

I'm sorry, I was pissed off earlier. I understand liking posting and interacting with people here. I hope you had fun while away.

UlyssesT how does it feel to be a treat yourself? When will you do a treat discourse session on how your posts have in fact become treatified? curious-marx

UlyssesT how does it feel to be a treat yourself?

When will you do a treat discourse session on how your posts have in fact become treatified?

I've already said many times in the past that treats are fine and I have treats too so long as they don't become a definitive (or tribalistically defended) part of one's identity, but I guess being gone for almost a year Flanderized me somewhat. Okily dokily.

It's really nice to see people treating (no pun intended) themselves well, the way you are here

Namaste

Can we stop this cringe baitposting? Actively (and honestly seeming deliberately) reviving struggle sessions, especially about people who are here to experience it, is just thoughtless and unfun for all.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 14 points 2 weeks ago

I'm just rolling it it, all the same.

[-] FearsomeJoeandmac@hexbear.net 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I genuinely do enjoy your posts and personality.

I think UlysessT was well served by his time spent touching grass. Before his journey, he had a habit of blowing up on comrades over some really petty stuff, but I've not seen that sort of behavior since he's returned.

That said, I've always agreed with him on like 90% of his very vivid observations and criticisms of reddit dudebro culture, and I love it whenever its some unfortunate federated lemmitor on the business end of one of his very brutal and emojiful dunkings. Glad to see him back.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 9 points 2 weeks ago

I appreciate the vote of confidence.

My well-established strong dislike of Gambo has offline precedent: that show was perhaps the last significant pop cultural monolith that I was not able to avoid while living and working around other people. When the hype wave finally crested and receded a decade later, what came after in the same genre of awooga libertarian-alert hypersus may have been comparably toxic hog slop, but it has been a blessing that I don't have to hear about it if I don't want to, not anymore. Maybe it's just where I live now (haven't seen a single ZYBERTRUKKK with my own eyes yet) but the worst excesses of bazinga culture simply don't exist and having the choice to opt out has helped me significantly.

[-] Des@hexbear.net 24 points 2 weeks ago

UlyssesT makes me not feel weird about replying to multiple people in one thread

Bad habit; I really should get to some stuff I was putting off today. sweat

It is 2023 on Hexbear, people are worshipping UlyssesT for whatever reason.

It is 2024 on Hexbear, people are worshipping UlyssesT for whatever reason.

It is 2050 on Hexbear, people are worshipping UlyssesT for whatever reason.

Whatever is written by a beloved poster is right — such is still the mentality of culturally backward Hexbear peasants. Strangely enough, within the Communist Party there are also people who always say in a discussion, "Show me where it's written by Marx." When we say that a directive of a higher organ of shitposting is correct, that is not just because it comes from "a higher organ of shitposting" but because its contents conform with both the objective and subjective circumstances of the struggle and meet its requirements. It is quite wrong to take a formalistic attitude and blindly carry out directives without discussing and examining them in the light of actual conditions simply because they come from a more notable poster. It is the mischief done by this formalism which explains why the line and tactics of the Party do not take deeper root among the masses. To carry out a directive of a higher organ blindly, and seemingly without any disagreement, is not really to carry it out but is the most artful way of opposing or sabotaging it. chairman

With respect to the power posters keeping this site alive, I refuse to form a parasocial relationship with an anonymous poster on a leftist shitposting/fed honeypot web forum.

What happened, did he leave again?

Pretty wild how the last big "I like UlyssesT" struggle session showed he was lurking. Overall sentiment was negative so he came back to dominate the comms again lol.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 17 points 2 weeks ago

I'm right here now.

When I showed up again, I was directed to what was a recent thread. I assume that wasn't the only one that popped off in my absence, but that particular one wasn't pleasant but then again, I feel like I had less chill back before I left and being out of CA and in a less aggressively hostile environment did me a lot of good, so some of my bad takes may have had that lasting ire coming, I suppose.

The media critic Diogenes of our hour.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Diogenes' most vocal fans tend to have a "no veggies for dinner, no naptimes" sort of petty/selfish theoryless version of anarchist ideology going on in my experience, but I still really like that "in a rich person's house there is no place to spit but the rich person's face" line. A classic. chefs-kiss

Or how about "I'm looking for the bones of your father, but I can't seem to tell them from the bones of his slaves"?

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 9 points 2 weeks ago

Good choice!

Darwin (before his name was dishonestly invoked for bourgeoisie-friendlier Spencer's "Social Darwinism") had the same observation: so-called nobles have no definitive biological differences to distinguish them from their so-called lessers. That scared the hell out of the ruling class of his day; the pretenses of heresy and all that were an afterthought.
