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 seen that shit even though I avoid Twitter like the plague
Good to know that never having wished death on any individual member of a oppressed group is basically equivalent to not showing hatred towards said oppressed group. I'm sure that if a 18th century slaveowner didn't say out loud to another person that he wished that all his plantation slaves would spontaneously drop dead, that must then mean that he is not a hateful racist.
Bigotry for these people can only mean being an out-and-out Nazi, making public speeches about how all the untermensch must be crushed underfoot and herded into gas chambers en masse. Because that really shows how good and virtuous of a human being you are - not being a literal Nazi.
Unless you show them the Nazis who are funding TERF groups and vocally supporting JK Rowling. Then the concern trolling begins.
people who think transphobia is impossible because any harm done to trans people is good and just love to say things like "um but can you prove that she's a transphobe?"
she's a classic case of "just asking questions!", dogwhistling hate but framing it as just harmless curiosity about trans people in society.
