It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Off topic: The term "sex pest" refers to someone who pesters for sex, i.e. persistently asks or makes advances even if the other person said they aren't interested or are specifically averse to this person. It's a form of badgering that is functionally aimed at wearing someone down until they consent despite not wanting to because they feel pressured or are sick of dealing with this person putting them in that position but don't have a way to shut them out. It's a specific group of abusive behaviors.

A violent rapist is not a sex pest, and the type of marital rape seen in ASOIF is also closer to that than pestering. What ASOIF has is not sex pest shit, it is rape shit.

did not know this, thank you! i thought it was a synonym of sex predator

but yeah, the rape is disgusting, especially when considering the age of the victims. GRRM has no excuse
