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

There's nothing more to say. It's literally the r/neoliberal post from a week ago, with some more edition because lemmy libs apparently are dumber and can't understand something unless it's spelled to them.

I'd honestly like to know. Looking through their post histories, most of them aren't FOSS geeks and are only active in politics threads.

I hate to say shit like this, but it seems like the reddit astroturf campaigns have come to lemmy

It costs the feds nothing to make an account there and post the exact same stuff they do to reddit. .world is probably completely astroturfed. Wouldn't surprise me if their attempts to defed leftist instances is pushed heavily by the feds too.

Lemmy is far too small for the feds to bother putting effort into destabilising it. It's far more likely that .world is just a bunch of crybabys that dont like it when they're not allowed to be xenophobic
