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 have never engaged with any of these other instances, but god damn do they have a lot to say about this place.

Damn we really do live rent free in their heads. This post was on an instance that has never been federated with us lol.

@m_f@midwest.social still pulling that "everyone I don't like is child" bullshit.

[–] Doubledee@hexbear.net 52 points 4 months ago

When I condescend to people instead of acknowledging their arguments it makes them angry with me. How silly and immature of them!

I guess Liberal Einstein is now sharing the results of their experiment with the rest of the scientific community

Yes (complimentary). The world is mad, so insanity is the rational response.

Rent. Fucking. Free.

I’m down. I vote everyone starts to talk to people friendly and respectfully until you encounter people that are disrespectful for no reason

I mean I am in fact insane but that's because it is no measure of health to be sane in a sick society.

Or, put another way, it's impossible to be a good person and not go insane in such a horrific society. When the "sane" ones are the ones who can stomach genocide, being "sane" is a bad thing.

They called John Brown insane.

Who told them I have crippling depression and anxiety? And why they gotta call me names over it?

Someone should shut this site down until we can figure out what's going on.

These people are fucking insane. Like actually. https://hexbear.net/post/3384251/5347090

Here you go. This is the actual post that fucking moron made. You can see for yourself that the guy had multiple good-faith responses that he clearly ignored while hyper-focusing on all the ones dunking on him. Like I don't even have to be a liberal Einstein genius to connect the dots there.

Just cram that link down their throats. The ones rational enough won't engage in this slop.

As an Elder Scrolls enjoyer, problematic parts and all, the poster glazing over Sheogorath as the best written character ever has massive "lolrandom equals brilliant" blinders on. Must also find the Penguin of Doom endlessly funny.
