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
It's not our fault the masses are generally a disgusting horde of thoughtless, hedonistic nazis that can't be bothered to read anything that might challenge their base pleasure they find in bullying "weirdos". Let alone have the intellectual capacity to understand something as basic as "kindness".
Do they really think mindless automatons like
are in the right about such issues? Let alone ANY issue?
Actually, hedonism was invented by a Greek philosopher who was rare among his contemporaries for allowing women and slaves to study at his school as equals. He believed a life of simple pleasures in moderation was the key to happiness. He spent all day gardening and discussing philosophy, and then had a glass of wine and (CW: carnism) cheese before bed. He was also an empiricist who believed the world was made of atoms, and he taught that fear of death was the cause of a great deal of human suffering. He believed people should act with kindness in order to ease their own conscience, instead of doing it because they're scared of divine punishment.

Hedonism is antifascist.
