Hexbear has been getting a lot more attention and activity as of late, and while it is very fun to dunk on the new people posting on the site in bad faith, a post to appreciate the new good faith users contributing to the site seems like a great idea.

So, what new users do you appreciate, and what should other potential new users do to get the same reception?

    Or go back and revisit something you loved from childhood and realize it’s shitty and reactionary and you didn’t have any idea at the time.

    Dark Knight, CGP Grey, a bunch of anime (like 99% of it), Lion King, etc etc. There’s so many things dripping with ideology and it doesn’t even cross your mind until you have a Marxist lens shift

      I dread consuming old books, music, and movies etc that I loved when I was younger in case I realise it was trash and I ruin the memory. It’s a shame because I want to re-live those memories. But you have to balance it: is it a risk you want to take?
