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

MODERATORS
The movie The Long Walk, which is actually really good, features Nazis and common criminals being imprisoned by those nasty Soviets. There's a scene where the main characters get to Mongolia and see a huge sign of Mongolia's leader shaking hands with Stalin, and they say something like: "Oh, no! It's here, too!" Then they find a Buddhist temple in Mongolia which has been smashed, the obvious implication being that the narsty communists did it. White liberals love Buddhism because it allows them to pretend that they are above the fray and better than everyone else; it's impossible for them to conceive of the fact that it was used as a tool of oppression under feudalism (and even under Japanese imperialism). There are still Zen temples in South Korea which were constructed during the period of Japanese domination.
They're periodically huge fans of Hinduism and certain boutique flavors of Islam for the same reason.
