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

the whole point of the term is to help victims. thats the entire point. its important for the victims we use the correct language. the term was invented by victim advocacy groups, you can just respect that. come up with you own words if you want I dont care. imagine working hard to try to create language for victims and then seeing people use the terms incorrectly. like by spreading the incorrect term around YOU are hurting REAL victims. this shit matters. it is very important to have specific terms for these things. keep dunking on vaush, please do. but just use the correct terms thats all im asking. for the sake of actual children. its also an important legal distinction. another potential term for CSAM was "crime scene photography" that is what that word means. literally evidence of a crime.

I'm glad someone finally said this, I was getting irritated seeing people using the term incorrectly.

It defeats the whole purpose. It should be obvious just considering what the acronym stands for.
