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

You can smell the "I'm apolitical/actually very progressive" and the "No, I haven't considered/didn't opt for conscientious objection to IOF mandatory service" through the screen
Right on the money. He's a liberal who's horrified by Netanyahu's constitutional reforms. He also posted this: https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillologycirclejerk/comments/q3beji/flag_of_palestine_but_it_will_spark_a_ruthless/
Wait, I'm sorry, but the vexillology post is really funny. If a Hexbear posted that on a lib lemmy comm it'd be hilarious. I guess their intention with it was "redditors are so antisemitic they'll bust a vein from seeing the Israeli flag" while my no-context reading was "redditors are such garbage you know there's gonna be a thousand jerkoffs going 'well ackchually' in the comment section."
Edit: nevermind, just saw the 13/50 post he also made.
That context is important. If a hexbear user posted this I'd assume they're a communist making a shitty joke. It's too one-dimensionally edgelord for an anti-Zionist to post. When it's a Zionist posting it from Israel in the lead-up to its current genocide, it's just like a Nazi posting "Here's the Soviet flag" with a swastika in 1937.
Gotta remember all circlejerk subs are irony poisoned besides gcj because we run the mod team there.
tgcj is also fine if you can get past the definitely not ironic dysphoria posting, cloaked in irony. trans people start at left-lib for the most part and it's not very hard to convince most of them to become comrades of one sort or another, and it shows in the posts on that sub.
Gcj is also horribly irony poisoned they're just also sometimes right
fair, my info's dated. I literally haven't logged into reddit since chacha was created
what is gcj? guitar?

The specter of the hexbear cabal looms large over reddit
Also quick question why does at minimum one out of every t people you play against know you're isreali? Isn't chess pretty much completely anonymous. Or are you upset you're getting called out despite making it a part of your personality.
On chess dot com, you select a flag to put next to your username.
You have the same thing in Street Fighter, and being a normal person I just pick 🇰🇵.
