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

In the same time they're claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.

I'm so fucking tired of this discourse, besides the very obvious transphobia that the Brits love, at this point it's thinly veiled sexism that the only women competing should be visibly stereotypically feminine. Which you know, runs counter to the required muscle mass to compete in these sports. Then you've got the factor that the women targeted in these tirades are often times POC so it's checking even more bigotry boxes.

With their collapsing economy and lack of import in global politics, the purpose of TERF island appears to be acting as a bigotry factory exporting their shit takes to the rest of the world.

And probably a heaping scoop of racism on top. I feel like TERFs are always jumping to make trans accusations towards cisgender women of color.
