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
We've swung the pendulum too far to the other side. People are being too gentle and diplomatic. We've forgotten part of why bullying works. Some people need to be chased away from the discourse. We had to chase so many people away to get the community and the vibes we have here now.
People like that I posted here should not feel comfortable acting like they are right now. They should be bullied to the point of silence for the sake of those around them, an for the sake of themselves becoming a lurker and hopefully acculturated to the community they've just joined.
Feel free to bully me if I'm wrong.
Reddit bingo:
Uses debate terms incorrectly
Smug
Refuses to read and acts like that makes him the victor
Baseless accusations about his opponent's personal character
Cringe
you won bingo! your prize is frustration.
Maybe you'll get crippling depression and doomerism if you keep winning the bingo!
Oh, you communists posted an entire wall of details well sourced analysis that names names and specific events which refutes my entire belief structure? SMDH literacy is such a communist scheme I am misusing a text to speech program to write this i have never comprehened a word in my life to protect me from the lies of 1984 no food big spoon tanks famine sparrows communism!
I think the Tesla consoomer bro I argued with earlier today didn't just get a Reddit bingo, but filled the entire card.
Importantly this was deployed in a reply to someone calling them out for completely ignoring a cited argument. The "strawman" here is saying something went over their head.
I'm sure of it.
And why do these debatelords only ever reflexively invoke the same one or two fallacies all the time? Where's the love for equivocation? The non sequitur? The composition fallacy! Lord knows they have enough experience with that last one
Sorry thats an ad hominem, that's -5 epic baconrinos for you!
I used non-sequitor! Dude was trying to compare the situation in Ukraine to the Palestinian crisis, saying that if Russia was justified in invading Ukraine (which was not my arguement) then Israel was justified in occupying Palestine!
They of course rejected the idea that it was a non-sequitor and continued posting bizarre things.
Wait, didn't Palestine hold the area before (current) Israel? I'm terrible at modern history.
Looks like an uncle and nephew shidding together.
he cant even use his reddit buzzwords correctly. lmao. this nerd should be bullied. sadly I dont have the energy to join your glorious efforts.
tbh when I saw them post that, I mostly just felt embarassed
like imagine posting that
Saving these for my personal usage on the site.
Guilty. I have engaged too many people in good faith only to have my good faith thrown back in my face covered in poop and pee and things less definable.
@Civility@hexbear.net where are you now?
