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

Even just this does fill me with terrible sadness, it is depressing but it's a really critical part of our history to know. We're still here!
We are still here, we have always been here, and we will always be here. Reading Leslie Feinberg's Transgender Liberation: A Movement Whose Time Has Come filled me with such an overwhelming feeling of solidarity and love for these people who lived and died for hundreds, thousands of years before us, in every part of the world. I'm tearing up as I write this, even thinking about it. We are still here.
It is a great read, I loved the diversity of perspectives and stories in it. Even when it's depressing, it's amazing and humbling to learn about our history.
