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

Fuck the shitty inauthentic accusations in the first paragraph.

Given the second paragraph, by all means judge us on that basis. We believe on a moral level that people should get to live and not be violently oppressed and assaulted by those in power, directly or indirectly, as is the norm today.

Look, this is obviously shit, but given how much we delight in saying things that irritate the living daylights out of these boat owners, don't be surprised when some of them go probing around for our pain points.

In any case don't let the bastards get you down.

When they probe for pain points and decide it's a good pain point to be the textbook definition of a transphobe, that is: somebody who denies trans people the right of gender self determination, they're not actually probing, they're just fascist scum who've settled on which marginalized group among us to attack first.

Just admit that you're an anti-communist and you can't defend why exactly that is

To be honest

I fucking hate that sentence opener because for most reddit-logo brained people it's used to imply that agreeing with the poster's opinion is the honest choice and that anyone who doesn't isn't accepting the honesty of their take. Fuck that.
