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

MODERATORS
 

I'm trans and I really don't want to federated with these people if their mods are defending the -tard suffix and they aren't getting de-modded and banned. I also don't want to be federated with them if they ban critiquing western chauvinism.

Someone who is an admin and with more of a level head than me RN please talk to their admins about it.

Yeah it's really fucked up. I love the mod, after they drop it, is like "(I am a vocal socialist and very far left)." WHERES YOUR SENSE OF HUMANITY TOWARDS THOSE WHO ARE DISABLED/NEUROATYPICAL MFER. Really enrages me. Like, the idea that you shouldn't apologize and do better about this, that's fascist thinking rather than leftist.

Anyone who claims to be socialist and is viewing people as intellectually inferior needs a thorough and stern talking to and to not be let anywhere near power at minimum

It's also like, mfer, there's plenty of other ways to dunk on LIB mfers. You can talk about their brainworms , the the-democrat demon energy of their party, the liberalism hypocrisy.

But instead, they add a really gross suffix. And for what? It doesn't pack any punch except to those of us sensitive to these kinds of issues. It's not like a LIB is going to get offended by it! They are frothingfash underneath, as we all know, so they're probably fine with deleting or confining the "surplus population" of disabled along with the homeless.

Doesn't help it's a mod too, so it's like, this is someone with power and sanction.

"(I am a vocal socialist and very far left).

If you say you're a socialist you don't need to add "far left" lol. This is, at best, a baby leftist and more likely just a confused reactionary.

Read that in the Trump voice and improv from there, v funny.

"I am very far left - I even frowned while I was voting for Joe Biden in the last election."

they are a socialist, the national kind.
