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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
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

That was Zoe Quinn, who was the #1 target for G*merGate harassment. Wu also got harassed, which makes it hilarious to me if she's now trying to garner favor from fascists, to them she'll always be an SJW who tried to f*ck with g*mers.
you can avoid your asterisks turning into long stretches of italics by escaping them like this with a backslash: \*example\*
Thanks, I was trying to figure out if there was a way to do that.
i remember deep diving into the "Zoe Quinn lore" and coming out thinking they were a bad person back in '16. i'm assuming much was bullshit
Yeah, it was all bs. Her creepy asshole ex put out an honest to go multi-page manifesto about how she was a (collection of misogynist slurs) mostly centering on how she had sex during a period when they were not together, but really just an absolute tirade of jilted dangerous ex boyfriend shit. That got picked up by the protofash and become "the lore"
