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

Also accuses us of getting "offended at anyone, for any reason." Literally indistinguishable from a chud.

yeah, their users wanted to remain federated because the transphobia was well akshully hexbear's fault and it wasn't actually transphobia, and neither is what's in the OP.

Lemmy drama remains inscrutable and hexbear remains the only place with users who actually care enough about to be articulate and educated. Big ups as always to our 100% genuine trans comrades.

Days of our lives solidarity The Fediverse

Having totally incomprehensible multi-year long plot arcs that are nearly impossible to unravel

"I've just found the birth certificates..." long pause while tense music quietly builds and camera zooms onto face

"Blahaj and Hexbear are twins separated at birth!" bum, BUM, BUUUUUMMMM!!!

On the Hexbears being articulate and educated front, I think it helps that users here will shred someone alive in the replies if they say unfunny, stupid shit.

Wrong! I've been unfunny on this site for years, but everyone's still nice to me.
