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

I would be real disappointed if that was true

Also, why are pronouns bad when we do it?

So people here are right wingers pretending to be trans and left wing. In order to keep up the charade, we suppress our deeply held right wing urges to hate gay people by banning all homophobia, mandating pronouns, and having explicitly pro-trans comms. And we've done all of this completely isolated for years.

And we have executed this plot in order to....?

If they had the words they could critique us for our non consistent attitude in regards to anti imperialism vs progressivism in terms of liberalism etc. and a couple other things (which is in part a result of our diversity and left unity and in parts of other things).

However even if they had the words a vast majority would still use ill fitting attacks.

Trick the Good Liberals on the Internet and make them doubt the purity of their faith

We are the right wing? Does this mean we can get corporate funding and unlimited access to the mainstream media?

Hi I'm pansexual and agender and I've been a Hexbeat user since day one and I say that Hexbear is the single beat LGBT community I've ever been in

Oh no, I'm being shot! Those dastardly cishets must be using me as a shield! Oh wait no they're not, it's just liberals being bigoted and blaming it on the left

Also I think Hexbear has the highest proportion of queer users for any website that isn't explicitly focused on queer people. Gay porn sites probably have more straight people than we do

I am old enough to remember the GDR in colour. With decades of political work and working mostly for our lower precarious third. Yet somehow I am a 20 year old who gets money from his parents(?) - I wish! Having a body that doesn't hurt would be amazing.

Hexbear, I'm told by insider sources, is Potemkin leftism - it's a grand performative conspiracy where the far-right congregate to LARP as leftists as a means of tricking good, honest liberals and as a means of indoctrinating naive, newly-minted leftists into deplorable acts such as "reading theory", denouncing Va*sh, and adopting a position of revolutionary defeatism which is inherently racist against People of NATO.

It's disgusting.

Wait....Actually humanity, yes we are right-wing. We have the good ideology. We're not leftists we're just alt-libertarians. We have all the same biases and prejudices you do, so vote us in power and we will get you the special treatment you deserve, we promise. garf-troll
