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
 

Prolewiki, the marxist-leninist encyclopedia, removed an administrator who tried to sabotage the project (you can see the evidence in the linked tweet). Therefore he was removed.

It took the infras a few minutes to find the tweet and start brigading it.

What else can I add? Their "huge" community and their "magacommunism" that will totally save the USA has like 920 members in their Telegram. They are less relevant than your local Five Guys that sees more traffic in a half day.

But they deploy a "point and shoot strategy" where one of them will signal your tweet and the rest will swoop in and post the most asinine stuff they can think of (definitely quantity over quality is important), boost each other, and just drown you out.

Hope this is the right community to post in, it was hard to decide.

I read an article here before all this patsoc stuff took off about "the new populist right" and it briefly mentioned Infra and maybe one of the Red Scare ladies? It was ages ago and I don't recall the details but it basically focused on a group of young influencers at some GOP event with a plan to build a NazBol movement. I've been thinking about it a lot lately and I wish I could remember who shared it.

Oh wow, if you find it please remind me.

It was several months back so don't get your hopes up, but I'll see if I can find it in my history!

Don't worry I'm used to being disappointed :alex-aware:
