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
I doubt they're tier 1 operators, but it's not as surprising as you think. Imagine if you served in Iraq/Afghanistan like 10 years ago, fighting against people way less technically savvy. It's easy to get complacent, especially in a war like this when you're fed so much crap about Ukrainians effortlessly crushing Russian demons.
Yeah, if barely functioning US units stationed in German tripwire postings were being told to not bring cell phones to Kuwait during the buildup for the Iraqi invasion of 2003 these wanna be war nerds should have known better.
I know we had company level and platoon level gear inspections and any cell phones that were found (back in 2003) were taken and most likely destroyed.
Essentially being a colonial cop versus fighting an actual army with airstrikes
