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 difficulty here is discussing it without also looking like you're anti-lgbt. Which is similar to the difficulty that previously existed with discussing zionism without also looking like you're antisemitic. The immediate assumption most people go to is that you're a raging homophobe.
Can I get a "hell yeah" for nato bootlickers calling the ace trans lesbian a homophobe??? Real shit!
I always open with "I do not want imperialists using the rights they won't even give me as a cudgel against the global south"
We have the same shit going on as the jewish anti-zionists. This is actually pretty revelatory for me, I had not connected these things before but it's so similar.
EDIT: Like holy fuck there's a reason we see "but they throw gays off rooftops" come up so often when it comes to palestine too. Same fucking thing. It even gets used FOR zionism itself.
Yup! Zionists fuckin LOVE their homonationalism, look up Brand Israel and bring a puke bucket. Also watch Pride Denied: Homonationalism & The Future of Queer Politics!
i'm a removed, it's easy for me. the correct response to "hm so you hate the LGBT Community??" is "shut the fuck up imperialist, if a queer joins the US army they should be hanged for treason."
