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

Can't be bothered with a serious social scientist who thinks too many jokes is why the American left can't gain traction. Or that someone being silly online (which being online makes everyone silly) is some kind of attempt at sabotaging the western leftist project.

The left has a problem because it is materially opposed, not because individuals aren't taking themselves seriously. We can be serious all day and not a damn thing will happen because we have no real power and can't seem to take any. I mean the also conspicuously online scolds will be happier until they decide it's our haircuts or dresscode that is a problem.

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
