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'm not a mod, but my understanding of the disengagement rule is that it's supposed to just be "disengage" not a whole message "getting the last word in". Not accusing you of doing that, but that's how I understand the rule.

Correct. Oftentimes we disagree on dumb shit, and the best course of action is to not let it devolve into childs' play.

You can't be a ePiCuReAn ReVoLuTiOnArY lIbErTaRiAn SoCiAlIsT and spam shit like this and then end the last line w/ "disengage" as if they can't now respond to the 3 paragraphs of text.

It's insanely bad-faith.

I completely agree with you, it is very bad faith. Since he's an admin I tried to be nice and assume the best, but returning to this thread I see it didn't really matter side-eye-1 (when I made my comment it showed as his being the last in thread and not removed)

Didn't this happen last time too?
