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

Beehaw admin makes a post that implies that Lemmygrad allows hatespeech (beehaw.org)

Whole post is dogshit, but Lemmygrad is the only sizeable instance blocked on beehaw, so I can't help but assume this is mostly addressed about us:

Some of the instances that we have chosen to defederate with have explicit political stances and ideologies. Their political stance and ideology had nothing to do with the choice to defederate. The choice to defederate was based on the amount of hate speech present on the instance and/or explicitly endorsing it

Our admins ban all bigotry, and are extremely quick to ban them, so this is complete bullshit. In addition per @CriticalResist8 , they originally claimed that they blocked us because we were too active and filling up their disk space (spoiler: they were just incompetent, it was just log files they weren't deleting). I hate these smug, weaselly little liars dude :hasan-smash:

Also, the comments complaining about the lemmy devs again. Please, I beg you, switch to kbin you fucking losers. The devs never should have helped your bum asses out. They offer free hosting, put your server in reccomended (and in fact were only 1 of 2 in the recommended section for a long time!), basically bend over backwards to accommodate you and all you can think of is "muh evil tankies"
