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

It's always kind of fun go detective mode
and figure out why they actually got banned
By "gender neutral pronouns exist", I bet it means it was actually defending Theying everyone despite their very visible pronouns lol
Oh hey I was right
Also this one was very sus to me.
I still suspect K!w!farms-tier long-con antics, complete with duper's delight signals like the "airplanekin" reference.
wouldnt be surprised if there are some threads obsessed with us over there. cant say i feel like going to check, its cozy here
Yeah, I don't buy the idea that this is someone being genuine. I smelled troll the second that user showed up here.
Very good chance that that user is on some nazi-frog-laden chanboard posting Groypers that are clinking wine glasses and announcing "those wokescold (slurs) respected my pronouns" to rage-filled laughter with the in-group.
Literally ever post they ever made was sus.
Yeah people very much use they them pronouns as a thing. Every nonbinary person I know IRL does, and they very much have a gender.
Also like, on a basic level, my pronouns are not they/them and you ARE misgendering me if you use them for me
There were a couple posts that could be taken as "my gender is helicopter" if you weren't familiar with the user. I didn't agree with the ban but I understood it. DroneRights uses it/its pronouns FTR
I hazily remember there being an initial ban that was lifted, but the final ban was because it was being reactionary
Was the final ban because of the "my partner is airplanekin" comment or was that the pre-ban?
p sure the official reason was enbyphobia iirc but i'm too lazy to check
e: lmao literally two posts down someone post the ban screencap
iirc it was the comment comparing han culture to whiteness and white supremacy.
