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

Reddit bingo:

Uses debate terms incorrectly

Smug

Refuses to read and acts like that makes him the victor

Baseless accusations about his opponent's personal character

Maybe you'll get crippling depression and doomerism if you keep winning the bingo!

Oh, you communists posted an entire wall of details well sourced analysis that names names and specific events which refutes my entire belief structure? SMDH literacy is such a communist scheme I am misusing a text to speech program to write this i have never comprehened a word in my life to protect me from the lies of 1984 no food big spoon tanks famine sparrows communism!

I think the Tesla consoomer bro I argued with earlier today didn't just get a Reddit bingo, but filled the entire card. cringe

Importantly this was deployed in a reply to someone calling them out for completely ignoring a cited argument. The "strawman" here is saying something went over their head.

probably, unfortunately debate pervert is terminal, once you've succumbed to it you'll never recover.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I'm sure of it.

And why do these debatelords only ever reflexively invoke the same one or two fallacies all the time? Where's the love for equivocation? The non sequitur? The composition fallacy! Lord knows they have enough experience with that last one

Sorry thats an ad hominem, that's -5 epic baconrinos for you!

I used non-sequitor! Dude was trying to compare the situation in Ukraine to the Palestinian crisis, saying that if Russia was justified in invading Ukraine (which was not my arguement) then Israel was justified in occupying Palestine!

They of course rejected the idea that it was a non-sequitor and continued posting bizarre things.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wait, didn't Palestine hold the area before (current) Israel? I'm terrible at modern history.
