spoiler
As a bit though
1 - Most influential hexbear
@UlyssesT@hexbear.net for personally killing Kissinger in his first day of logging off. At this pace we’ll have full communism by February
1. Most Influential Hexbear - @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net
An essential facet of Hexbear culture. This is a different, better place with him.
2. Most Likely to be Called a Tankie Offline - @wombat@hexbear.net
It is the end of 2023 and Stalin saved the world from fascism.
3. Best in Community Engagement - @WhyEssEff@hexbear.net
FWIIII Huh! Hooh! Huh! Hooh! Huh! Hooh!
-
@Cromalin@hexbear.net for the good trans memes
-
@UlyssesT@hexbear.net is most likely to be called a tankie because he is not afraid to voice his opinion and never backs down.
-
@WhyEssEff@hexbear.net obviously, and @corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net always brings good vibes
-
@polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml for being a overall friendly fellow. Special mention to @RedWizard@lemmygrad.ml for being a commie wizard
But really there are too many that I could list. @Infamousblt@hexbear.net @Goadstool@hexbear.net @Ho_Chi_Chungus@hexbear.net @Pluto@hexbear.net @Alaskaball@hexbear.net @Nakoichi@hexbear.net @knifestealingcrow@hexbear.net @Shitbird@hexbear.net @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net @thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net @Grownbravy@hexbear.net @Zoift@hexbear.net @TomboyShulk@hexbear.net @Melina@hexbear.net @Yurt_Owl@hexbear.net @wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net @Mabbz@hexbear.net @itsPina@hexbear.net @ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net @Owl@hexbear.net @BeamBrain@hexbear.net @FourteenEyes@hexbear.net @SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net @autismdragon@hexbear.net @Awoo@hexbear.net @Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net and @Othello@hexbear.net are all good people and there are probably more I missed. There are too many of you nerds. Sheesh.
god i miss @Shitbird@hexbear.net
1 @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net and all of the regular contributors to the news megathread for making it into an international hub of information exchange and learning. Never did I ever think that the current iteration we see today would’ve stemmed from the first war Containment thread during those confusing and anxious days. Additionally i want to show my appreciation towards @Awoo@hexbear.net, and @kristina@hexbear.net, for being positive figures of hexbear in both their work, posting, and presence. You both, alongside all the many other people here, make the site a pleasant and enjoyable island in the morass that is the general internet.
2 @GarbageShoot@hexbear.net has come so far in the past year I’m more than confident that if we ever met IRL he would radiate Stalinium.
3 the mods of the fake news comm. For the few times you’ve gotten me, you suck. @UlyssesT@hexbear.net for leading his own daily one-man crusade across hexbear and the wider federal network. You are gone but not forgotten.
4 the only person that consistently comes to mind for me is @Aru@lemmygrad.ml, for consistently participating in the news mega and assisting in giving us English speakers a glimpse into the Arabic world in a manner only a native speaker can. This of course extends to all our other multi-lingual friends and comrades here who take their ernest time to help us learn more about the world beyond our screens.
That’s very sweet of you, though I would never in a million years compare myself to our bank-robbing uncle [or his metal deposits, as the case may be].
Of course, I agree with all your other comments, though I don’t remember who Aru is unless they were the one who made the Arabic lesson posts (which I thought were cool the couple of times I read them).
