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

I would be real disappointed if that was true

Also, why are pronouns bad when we do it?

Wait....Actually humanity, yes we are right-wing. We have the good ideology. We're not leftists we're just alt-libertarians. We have all the same biases and prejudices you do, so vote us in power and we will get you the special treatment you deserve, we promise. garf-troll

What does his edit mean? Does he want us to bully LGBT people because we're supposed to be right wing baddies in his mind?

Hi I'm pansexual and agender and I've been a Hexbeat user since day one and I say that Hexbear is the single beat LGBT community I've ever been in

Oh no, I'm being shot! Those dastardly cishets must be using me as a shield! Oh wait no they're not, it's just liberals being bigoted and blaming it on the left

Also I think Hexbear has the highest proportion of queer users for any website that isn't explicitly focused on queer people. Gay porn sites probably have more straight people than we do

Pronouns in usernames is WHY I decided to stay on hexbear instead of jumping from instance to instance with the great reddit exodus of '23.

I'm still learning to interact with y'all, but I appreciate how tight knit the community is and how y'all interact with each other.

On that though, I genuinely can't see how people'd think this is a right wing instance pretending to be left wing, it's like they haven't even looked at the instance beyond a cursory glance

Guess I am a shield and not an human being.

Do liberals really puzzled
