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
Even if we accept the other points, a mistake is still morally superior to an intentional action. What the fuck is with this argument?
Yeah killing the sparrows was definitely a major L, but intentionally slaughtering a hundred million people in the name of manifest destiny is literally worse than what the Nazis did (who also deserve to be thrown in a pit and burned alive).
Killing sparrows because you think sparrows will ruin crops that feed people is exactly the same as killing buffalo because you think killing buffalo would starve the Lakota into submission.
To be fair they never made that comparison, I did.
Literally the difference between a crime and not a crime
