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 don’t really think he knows this site’s culture at all. No one is dissuading people from reading theory lol

Preston (who has an account here on lemmygrad: @aspensmonster@lemmygrad.ml) doesn't know about hexbear's federation I assume.

Y'all aren't federated with lemmy.ml? Well shit then. I'll go with option "knows nothing about Lemmy."

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago

No, we are, you were correct about that one. We aren't federated with most other large instances, though. Lemmy.world, lemm.ee, etc.

hey you are right about us ranging from shitty meme dump to cogent analysis. though I like to think we do both at the same time.

"here's a 10-paragraph essay on how de-dollarization may function and proceed in the next few decades, punctuated with emotes of the simpsons and communist leaders with red beaming eyes"

Your sentiment was correct. Hexbear, Lemmy.ml and Lemmygrad make up what the rest of lemmy would call the "tankie block."five-heads Lemmy.ml was the only one to be filled with liberals because of the reddit exodus.
