the what now? can someone fill me in on what happened?

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 61 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Aaron Bushnell, a former airforce-turned anarchist, self-immolated himself to protest Israeli embassy's support of genocide in Gaza...

Typical western 'leftist' with pro-west foreign policy calls him a mentally-ill tankie for supposedly supporting Hamas or any other anti-western force which is 'unreasonably' authoritarian... (I have not heard of his support for anti-west forces, let alone Hamas)

People tracked down his Reddit account. He was a Chapo

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 61 points 1 year ago (5 children)

He did say he hated the podcast because, and I quote:

"They're just assholes, in my opinion. A bunch of white dudes circlejerking and shitting on everything and everyone ad nauseam"

That could definitely be someone from r/ChapoTrapHouse tbh edgeworth-shrug

The square you have to circle is that they were spitting when they said that. I doubt the hosts would disagree.

I listened to the pod, I was on the subreddit and I'm pretty sure I've said that exact sentence before thinking-about-it

shitting on everything and everyone ad nauseam

Yes, everyone is a liberal except me and I will make fun of them for it gigachad

A bunch of white dudes circlejerking and shitting on everything and everyone ad nauseam

What part of 'ruthless criticism of all that exists' do they not understand?

Now that you mention it, most people on chapo were either hating or ignoring the actual podcast so it could be.

Similtaneously both the least likable quality and precisely why i was there. Made me feel like I was shitting on everything and everyone vicariously.

On the other hand, others do it better these days

[–] TrashGoblin@hexbear.net 53 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wonder if he was a hexbear. rat-salute

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If any of you fuckers self immolate I'm going to pull you out of the afterlife for a beating

[–] DavidGarcia 11 points 1 year ago

The beatings will continue until morale improves

[–] IceWallowCum@hexbear.net 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Non-zero chance that he posted here. Two days until CNN picks it up and Hexbear is mentioned on national news

Really? I must have missed this news.

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Wow, really? What was the username

[–] Drewfro66@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm drunk rn and can't be bothered to look it up but it was something like "LilliAnarkitty"

[–] alcoholicorn@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

LillyAnarkitty was the twitch username.

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

acebush1, but reddit has nuked the account

[–] YearOfTheCommieDesktop@hexbear.net 28 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Not former, he was active duty air force (an IT guy though not flying or working on planes)

What? That takes a lotta balls to just recently do that... than be discharged...

[–] DavidGarcia 7 points 1 year ago

thank you. That's one hell of a way to make it into the history books.
