We've seen an uptick in people posting dunks in here that belong in dunk_tank, as well as low-hanging fruit that gets removed from or isn't allowed in dunk_tank anymore. For context, rule 8 of dunk_tank:

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.

There's a reason that dunks are cordoned off to their own comm, some users rightfully don't want to see reactionary nonsense all the time, even if we're making fun of the person who said it. /c/cth is a general-purpose comm but it's NOT for posting some random nobody asshole twitter user's bad takes, the absolute best course of action to take when you see that stuff out in the wild is to either directly shit on them yourself, or ignore them and don't give them more attention.

From this point on I'm going to be more stringent about moderating this. I get it, it's fun to dunk on the libs and the blue checks and the frothingfash and that's why we have a whole dedicated comm for that. Any post that's obviously meant to be "hey look at this piece of shit, let's laugh at how bad their opinions are, upbears to the left and emojis in chat" belongs in the_dunk_tank. And any super low-hanging fruit doesn't belong on this site, period (see TDT rule 8 above). We have better things to do with our time than give unearned attention, time and energy to low-follower-count nobodies yelling into the void.

Thanks for your discretion comrades, stay sicko sicko-jammin

edit: as others have pointed out, /c/[email protected] is a good place for any and all dunking content not allowed here. Post that ragebait to our comrades at the 'grad, they'll make good use of it. Also, per rule 9 of TFT dunking on fediverse users is still explicitly allowed so it's still open season on those in our own backyard.

This is on my mind, since I had to temp-ban someone from c/vegan for it in the past week, and another example of it went unmoderated for hours after being reported in another community (though it was eventually dealt with).

It doesn't matter how much the person you're responding to deserves it. Odds are, they will not care. But you know who will care? Any comrades who happen to read the thread and who struggle with suicidal ideation and/or self harm. You could ruin their day. You could be the push that sends them over the edge. Even in the unlikely event that you cause grief to the person you're responding to, no amount of collateral damage is worth it.

Don't make suicide bait posts or comments. Don't upvote suicide bait posts or comments. Report and denounce them wherever they show up.

Wanted to get a thread together to highlight aid groups that can be donated to to help Palestinian aid

~~That's the only one I know of but leaning on y'all for help to spread the word. Lots of medical aid needed so let's direct our energy toward those helping in Gaza~~

Keep em coming and I'll try to continue to add them here

2/4/2021 Update: In light of chucklefuck TERF shit with Giggle, I am once again demanding the rest of you liberals educate yourselves on trans issues with Trans Liberation as a starting point. And you better believe more literature on minority struggle is in the pipelines. We're doing some reading this month, libs. Get ready.


AUDIOBOOKS HAVE BEEN RECORDED FOR ALL 8 CHAPTERS. YOU LITERALLY HAVE NO EXCUSE FOR LIBERALISM.

https://hexbear.net/post/48476

Follow that link and you'll find a free download of the book in pdf and comrade @EugeneDebs's epub, comrade @futomes' audiobooks for all eight chapters, and notes and discussions from the book (and don't you dare just read the fucking notes you god damn liberals, read the fucking book or listen to the audiobook).

I spent an entire weekend night scanning the whole damn book so y'all could educate yourselves on the fucking struggles we've been screaming about for the past six months and hardly any of you damn cissie libs participated. Had you participated you'd probably have a better understanding of the struggles we face and we probably wouldn't be in this situation where trans people are heading for this damn hills because you're all shit libs driving us away.

Fucking read it or listen to the audiobooks and I won't ask again. It's all free. The book is only 147 pages - that's 7 pages per night for exactly 3 weeks. I wipe my fucking ass with 7 pages, that's nothing. People put genuine effort into this to ensure you could educate yourselves and you have no reason not to outside of fucking liberalism.

It reads quick. Drop whatever the fuck you're reading and read this. Now. :leslie-shining:

~~Edit: I'll be throwing up a discussion thread at some point in the next week or so for you damn shitlibs to comment on with things you find meaningful so I'll know if you actually gave a shit. I swear to God I better see y'all in the comments.~~

If you're having trouble downloading, there are links in this comment by u/hexaflexagonbear that seem to work.

My name is Aya Muhammad. I was born and raised in Gaza, where I lived a simple life filled with hope and ambition. From a young age, I dreamed of making a positive change in my community and achieving a dignified life for my family. I studied commerce at Al-Azhar University in Gaza, looking forward to graduating and starting my journey toward independence. During my studies, I met my husband, Muhammad, and our love story grew with hope as we planned to build a home and life together.

We were preparing for our marriage, spending time setting up our home and choosing the furniture we had always dreamed of. We shared beautiful moments dining in Gazaโ€™s restaurants, walking along the beach, and enjoying peaceful times with our families, where life was full of joy and hope.

Then, suddenly, war erupted, turning our lives upside down. Our home was destroyed, forcing us to flee from Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza to the south, where we found ourselves living in a cold tent during the harsh winter. We lost our jobs and our source of income, and the dreams we had built together disappeared. As we faced repeated displacement, we moved from streets to open areas, with no choice but to endure the difficult conditions imposed upon us.

During this time, my husband lost some of his family members, and we endured the grief of losing loved ones and neighbors day by day. My father became bedridden after suffering paralysis, without access to the necessary medical care. These hardships weighed heavily on us, and despite the limited aid we receive, we try to stay strong and make it through each day.

Today, I share my story with the world, hoping our voices reach those who can help us rebuild our lives and support us as we strive to overcome this tragedy. My story is more than words; it is a call for support and a hope for building a better future.

Is there any flavor of libertarianism that even in theory makes sense? I lump libertarians together which I guess is unfair but I only talk to them online and they always seem to so similar however they define themselves with nuance. I find them to be ridiculous, obnoxious, and selfish.

For example - at Bluesky I just had an argument with a self-described socio-libertarian who was against "disruptive" protests against climate change. The character limit at Bluesky makes an actual discussion pointless in a situation like this. But they were an asshole anyway so that limit did me a favor. And I didn't need to her some kind of fantastical thinking about the magic of the free market solving climate change.

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about libertarian socialism...

Libertarian socialism

Libertarian socialism is an anti-authoritarian and anti-capitalist political current that emphasises self-governance and workers' self-management. It is contrasted from other forms of socialism by its rejection of state ownership and from other forms of libertarianism by its rejection of private property. Broadly defined, it includes schools of both anarchism and Marxism, as well as other tendencies that oppose the state and capitalism.

What I mean by this is that I've talked to tons of libs, usually white, who'll look at and/or interact with me as a black, androgynous transfem, and they'll say shit like, "I really hope Kamala gets in office for real, though. I don't agree with her position on Gaza, but Trump's gonna do so much damage if he gets elected for a second time!"

And I just nod my head along to it. I don't say a word of explicit agreement or disagreement. If I said that I disagree and that I'm not voting for Kamala, then in usual lib fashion, they'll see it the same level of absurdity as me saying, "I'm a black non-binary transfeminine Trump supporter. I'm like an even more colorful spin on Blaire White! MAGA! You mad, woke liberal SJW mob?" trollface

They're so out of touch that they can't fathom why, to any degree, a person like me would be so opposed to supporting the "99% Hitler" party, and 99% is even charitable. That's why they always assume that any leftist who's not voting for Harris is just a cishet white dude who doesn't understand the plight of the marginalized, and if you're not a cishet white dude and you reveal to these libs that you don't support Harris, you'll have many scratched liberal moments, of course. Speaking from experience!
