For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

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 bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

Here's a preview:

Funny protest idea! 🤡 Dress up like clowns and make signs shaped like speech bubbles of all the ridiculous things this administration says and take photos for the internet so it looks like literal clowns are saying these quotes (basically what’s actually happening)

My friend gave me this idea when he told me he wanted to see a clown troupe in full body costumes on unicycles and playing Kazoos at J6 and the Nazi March in NC, following them like a train. And how that imagery against the violence would’ve gone viral like the HawkTuah girl on steroids😆

Do you have any other ideas to use humor to protest?

I think laughing at them is a great way to belittle them ~ calling them weird SO got under their skin last year!

One of the hosts of the Western Kabuki podcast said he's now teehee-pilled. He dresses up like a clown, reads the news, and hits himself on the head with a fake hammer while giggling so he doesn't feel like he's going insane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhNmvGbKGb4

I feel like maybe he's already there

Name one thing that's insane about filming yourself giggling and hitting yourself in the head with a hammer while dressed as a clown watching CNN. I'll wait.
