the_dunk_tank
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

The word "statist" belongs in the slur filter.
The first contribution I want to make to the lemmy backend is a word filter. It would kind of be like the slur filter, but it would let you turn it into any other word you want instead of removed . I feel like a lot of fun could be had with that.
When this site launched it automatically converted "Israel" to "Palestine," but this caused a lot of confusion and it was scrapped in about a week.
Yeah, fuck Palestine! Wait what :cat-confused:
Fark has been doing that for almost 25 years (e.g. every instance of the N-word becomes "attractive and successful African-American") and I'd be lying if I said nobody had a problem with it, but people who see fit to challenge it tend to give up very quickly.
It's truly a great bit and one that should be appropriated by a website that isn't reactionary.
