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

After the initial teething pains, the remaining instances federated with us will have a HEXBEARS KEEP OUT, NO PIGPOOPBALLS sign like midwest.social did for all their important meta struggle session threads

Edit: Which also means we're pretty shit at brigading, if that's all it takes for us to back-off, now that I think about it

It's almost like we weren't actually "brigading" to begin with

Why not marx-goth

upon reflection it does look a little too much like a dunce cap, but it's also how I feel potentially getting defederated like a month after our three year birthday
