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

“Muh immersion” is the “but what about the children?” for freeze-gamer

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago (2 children)

How in the absolute fuck does taking a millisecond to choose "he/him" during character creation and then have characters call you by that pronoun for the rest of the game "break your immersion" anyway?

if you choose "he/him" it gives you a message that says "sorry this interactive experience is for the femmes and thems only" and deletes the install.

His logic was that he's reminded of politics when the game calls it pronouns. He'd probably prefer it to be called gender and have the little arrow signs. It'd be an almost imperceptible difference if you didn't care. If you're having a frothingfash moment it matters a lot
