If someone constantly posts a cross after their post or, whatever else, star and crescent moon of Islam or Hindu symbology... etc. I think "kinda seems like a weirdo. Not a person I would willingly hang out with on my own time." I'm not anti-religion. People can do whatever they want and believe whatever. I honestly don't care. I was raised Christian, have many friends who are Muslim, Jewish (practicing orthodox), etc. But they aren't sending me emails at work or in school ending with their religious symbols. Christians do absolutely do this a lot on Twitter... and we all know them as absolute weirdos.

It's just weird how if eaglefucker-mywifeis16-1488 on Twitter is immediately tossed aside (appropriately) as a religious nut as they spam the ✝️ emoji... why am I expected to pay any deference to a person who constantly calls for genocide of Muslim groups and also spams a religious symbol? The Star of David ✡️ is a religious symbol and not representative of her ethnicity. I'm not Christian or Muslim, but if some weirdo was calling for murder of Jews and spamming ✝️ or ☪️ I'd uh... think that person is a nutter because I fundamentally understand that none of these three religions endorse genociding each other. Despite what any minority within them says.

I guess what I'm saying is just as Muslims are disgusted by usage of their religion to justify groups like ISIS doing their crimes and Christians (should be) disgusted by American politicians, etc. invoking Christianity to justify crimes since... well, forever, it should be equally gross and disqualifying from being invited to public discourse if you profane and weaponize the Star of David. It's just so cynical and gross and fuck her.

I'd also include the state of Israel/Zionist supporters who fly the flag of Israel in a very outwardly menacing type of way. They know it's an inflammatory symbol because of they have profaned a religious symbol. David is a revered figure to all the three monotheistic religions and people who see Israel for what it is and are religious or have sympathies for those religions should be disgusted.

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
