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

MODERATORS
Who's gonna tell him communism is a left ideology ?
They love little rhetorical tricks like showing you the front cover of "Left-Wing" Communism: An Infantile Disorder by Lenin but not citing anything Lenin actually said in that book and ignoring the specific early 20th century Russian political context in which it was written. They also love citing random homophobic incidents from people like Stalin in the 40s or Castro in the 60s, and acting as though that means Communism as a political movement must permanently have a heteronormative socially conservative superstructure. They love to do vulgar "workerism" which is where you idealize the "normal" "average" worker and project that as a moral ethic that the rest of society should strive towards. They love to do growth fetishism and treat reproduction and "family units" as a part of the proletariat's "duties" to the ~~capitalist class~~ totally socialist society they envision.
