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

"stop showing me the horrors" stop supporting the horrors. stop lending credence to the people doing the horrors. stop trying to block out the horrors. stop trying to unfocus your brain from the horrors because it's no longer in your interest to face them. you do not get a second of peace. you want to forget this is happening. you will not be allowed to forget. you do not get that privilege when you are an active launderer of monsters.

you will either develop empathy for the victims and indignity towards the machine or you will be made to feel guilty for your abettance of it with the last shreds of empathy you have. if you are ever, ever made ignorant of what exactly you are supporting, it is imperative that you are fucking Ludovico'd with the consequences of your ideology until your cognitive dissonance is hammered away and you fall with a side that exists in reality, you mealy-mouthed fence-sitting war-criminal-hosting spineless piece of shit.

living a life of comfort most trans people can only dream of and she uses that privilege and platform to villify anyone who's suffering furthers the status quo. pathetic is not strong enough of a word for natalie

I fucking hate how despite there being so many communist trans women, the most well known ones with a lot of followers end up being either pick-me chuds or radlibs who like punching left. agony-deep Privilege and wealth is a fuck.

That and the mainstream still won't tolerate leftist queer people really, lol. Of course they want trans bootlickers who uphold the status quo! desolate
