How many people here are US citizens?

Most of the hexbear instance tbh. I'd say 80%-90% while those of us from other regions are a minority.

You have to understand that the initial users here all came from /r/chapotraphouse when it was banned which is an american socialist podcast.

I think you underestimated the number of Bernie Sanders supporters who were exiled to r/cth and are not American.

While it is true the vast majority are Americans, lots of people who phonebanked for Bernie during the 2015 primary campaign were not American, have never been to America, and probably aren’t even English native speakers. (And no we weren’t Russians lol)

lots of people who phonebanked for Bernie [...] were [...] Russians

Ah yes. Bernie Sanders. The poster child of tankies...

Kind of quaint to look back on, we were so innocent back then
