a post about how many nazis remained in positions of power is made, the op is called a tankie and people defend the decision to keep nazis around
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
The allowed in "anti-tankies" from 196, and that became basically the only comm that matters. 196 is nominally pro-trans but does so in a really weirdly horny way, and because 196 is predominantly cis it comes off very chasery. The admins of blahaj refused to take action agaisnt chasery posts, and the mod of the 196 comm actively defended them.
They don't even hide it:
@HornyOnMain@hexbear.net you tried
never trust liberals
Really shows their priorities as a "trans instance". Easier to ban trans socialists (re: 90% of the IRL trans community) than chasers and holocaust deniers
Also comm mods can ban from comms but it isn't site wide
