In the same time they're claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.

I think there was a related story about african lady sprinter (higher natural testosterone level), think she wound up getting banned in some competitions as well.

Yeah, this one got a lot of attention because British runner and professional crybaby Lynsey Sharp did a big performative cry after the race about how unfair the rules were and how her dream had been taken away. She then turned it into a celebrity press tour and a book deal here in the UK.

She didn't even only lose to Caster Semenya. She came sixth!

Oh yeah, Caster Semenya is a massive terf bugaboo. They're absolutely certain that she's "a man". They're wrong, of course, but that has never stopped a terf!

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
