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

Debate nerds triggered by someone shooting back with a "stfu nerd" instead of a dissertation.

[–] Egon@hexbear.net 73 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

They're not even debate nerds. I've gone thru debatey discussions with a bunch of them, and they just end up in a circular loop or being condescending and then crying foul when you say they're being condescending.
One of their favorite phrases is "don't put words in my mouth" and "strawman" which is apparently when you quote what they say back at them.

That's the most redditly comment I've ever read.

I can just see them clicking post feeling like it's the sickest burn.

He's already in his Joe Rogan discord telling the lads about his epic dunk sans-undertale

i'm so so glad that tumblr outgrew insults like this in like 2015 and i haven't had to see them since. overly verbose "i'm smarter than you and so not owned" insults are up there with the most cringe ass shit the internet does.

[–] Tastysnack@hexbear.net 47 points 1 year ago (1 children)

People who are super well read and articulate are attractive precisely because they don't overuse it and instead pull out banger niche words once in a blue moon that gives it proper clout.

People who exclusively talk like that make my skin crawl with cringe.

[–] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ive seen many of your comments and only just now realized that that's your icon, and not an emote you put in every message lmao

[–] Tastysnack@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago (5 children)

I gotta say, I was expecting vitriol when I first got a reply to a comment from a Hexbear user, but y'all are genuinely appreciative of discourse and it's been refreshing to not immediately be attacked when I argue in good faith. Y'all are getting a bad rap lol, glad to be able to communicate with you

Rule 1 of making insults: don't hint about your sexual fetish

Something very Freudian about the Lemmy fascists. We should study it.

"Hah, you disgusting tankies are too busy looking at your foot fetish porn... with its supple toes... and gorgeous wrinkles... and the smell, oh God, the smell!

Where was I? Uhh. Yeah... you tankies suck."

Something about the way he phrased it makes me think this is one of those breast milk ice cream guys

He says it in a way like of course everyone secretly wishes they could still breastfeed, but he’s grownup enough to resist the temptation and we’re not, or something

I’d edit out the stuff about calling him a diaper fetishist, nothing wrong with that on its own afaik

Is it not strawmanning to represent your opponent as a... "cave-dwelling infant"?

[–] MoreAmphibians@hexbear.net 37 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I think it's technically an ad hominem.

Strawmanning would usually be misrepresenting somebodies argument instead.
