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

wtf does "the Israel of Lemmy" instances mean?

[–] [email protected] 51 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Given the claim of "pinkwashing" I think they're saying that we use a veneer of LGBT support to couch our horrible evil communist views. This is similar to how Israel claims to be pro-LGBT while committing genocide etc.

In reality their brain is just broken and they refuse to accept that LGBT people could be to the left of them.

hey at least this instance is upgrading from the usual rhetoric of denying that any of us are LGBT

[–] [email protected] 35 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sadly in the same way that Israel lies about LGBT rights (eg not allowing gay marriage), they would say we are lying about our LGBT membership.

Left is Yamato, right is Kikunojo, they're trans characters from One Piece. Specific origin of this image seems to be this meme:

Yeah, I haven't read it myself because 1000 chapters is way too long for something with no end in sight.

T4T, bi4bi, lesbian, gay, and all non straight marriages are the only valid marriages. Those are the rules.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Only gay marriage is permissible. Straights have to settle for civil partnerships.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 10 months ago

I allow gay marriage cure-for-fascism

They've been taught that communism is inherently homophonic and "authoritarian", so they think lgbt people cannot possibly be communists.

In this case probably something antisemitic for having trans Jewish admins removing comments and banning people.
