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
Issue is most of them don't want to come here in good faith then don't understand why people are not taking their shit
It's so strange that people think they can just waltz in and act like they dictate site culture
Not like they argue in good faith anywhere else
I think that their idea of a good faith argument with someone they disagree with is to find common ground and then shake hands with neither party changing their minds at all but now they respect each other or some stupid trash like that. When confronted with a zero sum argument or a need to actually have a groundwork for your argument instead of living in an infinite game of devil's advocate they panic. They get flustered. They remember the time they asserted in 8th grade that Albuquerque was in the country of Mexico and not the state of new Mexico and the entire class and teacher laughed at them (never happened to me. Made up story.
) and that's when they lose their cool
