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

another account in that thread is using the same pictures. There is no fucking way two people in the same thread think that unironically replying with those pictures is some kind of massive own. For my own sanity, they NEED to be sockpuppets.

I confronted them on it and they just kept denying it and saying it was a conspiracy against them lmao.

thats bc we are power posters tho and we have a bit of a siege mentality rn, defending each other from the waves of libs

nah. I just upbear good takes and occasionally dunk on really bad ones if there isn't too much of a dog pile already.

Ok real talk I have literally upvoted someone within 30 seconds of their post when I'm doomscrolling comments/all/new several times.
