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
No, they still have human rights. Like, in a war you shoot soldiers who are trying to shoot you. If they surrender, you treat them as POWs, you don't torture them or murder them. If a person is harming other people, you stop the harm but you don't dehumanize them. It's important to be consistent here.
It's important to draw the distinction that those cops and Nazis you mentioned are in the conversation because of choices they make or beliefs they hold. Were they to stop making those choices, they would not be subject to violence. Even with the choices they make, were they to not harm others with their beliefs, I wouldn't have a problem with them holding said beliefs. The obvious problem is fascism doesn't build a cabin in the woods isolating themselves from everyone else.
