“National Security” or “Preventing Terrorism” would be my guess. It’s what they do in so called “authoritarian” countries. US would also do the same if it sees its state power under threat or if a certain leader come into power.

Guessing terrorism or promoting terrorism.

the FTC would shut us down for being swag monopolists

Personally my swag is too different and a tactical nuke is headed towards my location as we speak

As it stands, nothing on Hexbear breaches the letter of the law in western countries.

But, the reality is that they can arbitrarily arrest those they want to, and the consequent charge and punishment will be equally arbitrary and dependent on what made “push come to shove”. Any previous examples will be equally arbitrarily charged and sentenced. So the only realistic answer is:

• Crime you’ll be charged with: Anything
• Punishment: Anything between no punishment and death.

• impersonating police for volcel police.
• inciting jazz music
• gay sorcery

Nothing, if it gets to that point they’d just kill us. Has the userbase of any forum ever been mass-arrested?

It’s all satire / parody covered by the first amendment. Not that it would do you a lot of good if you’re just thrown in a van or held indefinitely without trial which would be the most likely outcome I think

The only no-no is actionable threats and those are against the rules here iirc, and I have never seen them

being ridiculously cute.

Terrorism, conspiracy, something about being foreign agents, interacting with against some obscure law, and worst of all being

Antisemitic hate speech (someone said BDS is good)

Our made up internets number will be tared by the Committee for un-Amerikkkan Activities, Who will falsely accuse us of being Russian / Chinese / Iranian [insert who isn’t worshiping today] haxors, before promptly being proven wrong.

They will send your ISP a letter, expressing their displeasure. Who will then send you a letter expressing their displeasure of recieving a letter of displeasure.

Of which we will have a hearty laugh - and toss in the trash after posting our pleasure of their itterative letter of displeasure reflecting how much of a thorn we are to Wall Street’s puppets.

They would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn’t for you meddling bears.

Asa Winstanley had his devices taken and his house searched by the pigs, even though he wasn’t charged with anything. This was in the UK where that’s a lot easier for them to do than in the US, but laws are changing every day.

I bring up Asa because I’m familiar with his work and his social media, and I can say what he says is tame compared to us. We’re all pretty openly very supportive of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran (just yesterday I was asking if someone could help make an Al-Qassam Brigades wallpaper). If we got hit for anything, I think it would be for “supporting terrorism”.

Granted, I really think that would only involve trying to shut down the website, which we could always just create a new one in a worst case scenario. I don’t think going after individual users is really on the table, that would require NSA type action and the feds aren’t going to break out those resources on some poxy commie website.

imo the site would just be shut down in some way. Many of the state’s domestic repressive functions are more easily carried out by non-state actors. Like FICO score or getting categorized as ‘extremist’ in an HR consulting database. This sort of thing materially pushes people into situations where they’d be arrested for something more mundane.

Other than that, there are other forms of carcerality or social ostrisization if people fall outside of social norms in real life. So maybe in IRL we say “hey isn’t making kids say the pledge of allegiance every day sorta weird and bad?” and someone responds that it would be unamerican not to and that their dad died in iraq or something and that the pledge honors them… and etc etc… suddenly vaguely left people irl who were gonna join the DSA but didn’t ever get around to it are indistinguishable from maoist guerillas because US body politic is ridiculous.
