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

I've had trans people try to convince me that I am trans

I mean yeah, same, i've had people (trans and cis) tell me i should transition, or get on T, or "wait, you use she/her? really?" - but the difference is that i'm capable of understanding that these are just shitty people who have a problem with GNC people and/or women who aren't feminine or conventionally attractive. Is it misogynistic, implying that women should look/behave/dress a certain way? Yeah, absolutely, but that makes that one individual person a dick, it doesn't fucking imply that an entire group of people are a cult or shouldn't have rights or some shit, jesus.
