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

edit: GUYS fuck stalin and fuck tankies, period. i understand that this community is more sensitive than most to pro-stalinist vibes, and i apologize for unintentionally twinging that nerve, but you need stop calling each other (and me) slurs.

calling me and each other slurs….

so, actual slurs, or is this just some “tankie is a slur” type shit?

I dont go anywhere on lemmy except this den of iniquity, so i have no idea wtf is going on.

I’m assuming actual slurs. Multiple “anti tankie” and “anti communist” subreddits had to make pinned posts denouncing posts about Jews pushing for communism and inclusivity and LGBT acceptance lol.

Oh no I got fascism in my anti communism again

Maybe the 4,532nd time will be the charm

looking through the modlog theres at least one person who got their comment removed for saying the r slur and one person who got banned for saying the c slur (and also their ban message references them saying other slurs but they had all their posts removed when they were banned so i cant see what other slurs they said) also someone else got banned in that thread on suspicion of being a tankie

Edit: also this from a few days earlier lmao
