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
What most people think of (dirt bikers riding around countryside being loud and ripping up public paths) isn't a major problem for most people. It will probably get support from rural or retired folks who don't have anything else to complain about (i.e. Tory voters). What is an increasing problem is the rise of twist and go "e bikes" that are essentially motorbikes. These are becoming a problem in city centres and pedestrianised zones where they're not allowed. You also see a lot of teenagers riding them on roads at night, all black clothes, no lights, no helmets. Bit of a nuisance and if you asked the average person in UK I bet they'd have a negative attitude towards it. Maybe this is what Labour are trying to capitalise on? If you ask me we should be making them bike lanes and embracing it but whatever.
