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

Also libs, what is wrong with you? Student loan forgiveness? Nah. Healthcare? Nah. Meals for kids in school? Nah. Making even a token attempt to stop the entire extinction of humanity due to global warming? Nah.

Fucking Russia? OMG YES YES YES YES YES frothingfash

There's always money in the banana stand.

imagine still being gung-ho about sending money to nazis when the pentagon has just announced that they will make sure the money keeps going even if social services and other critical services get shut down due to neoliberal austerity politics

they're straight up telling you that your life doesn't matter to them any more than the lives of the ukrainians they're happy to keep shoveling into russian artillery

Anyone want to take bets on when they run out of Ukrainians and start shoving Americans into the meat grinder instead?

My "this is America's next Vietnam" model says it'll happen some time in 2026.

I daresay they'll start shoveling poles and balts first

worrying about sending Banderite fascists on the order of a hundred billion dollars: pinching pennies

not doing squat for Lahaina fire victims: pragmatic individualism

Seasons don't fear the Hexbear, nor do the wind, the sun, or the rain

I will become killed

In America, not being allowed to post is the same as death.

I didn't know their bans showed up on our mod logs. Cool. Lemmygrad continues to be based rat-salute-2

[–] CriticalResist8@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

For some reason the devs decided a while ago to federate modlogs. I wish it could be decided on a per instance basis I'd you want to push it to other instances bc I don't really need to know what world or ee is deleting and likewise for them.

Wine cave warriors continue howling for blood and demanding @Civility@hexbear.net from everyone else.
