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

Can someone explain to me how a trans-inclusive instance is this fucking awful? Were we not federated with them at one point? I swear we were. What the fuck happened?

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The allowed in "anti-tankies" from 196, and that became basically the only comm that matters. 196 is nominally pro-trans but does so in a really weirdly horny way, and because 196 is predominantly cis it comes off very chasery. The admins of blahaj refused to take action agaisnt chasery posts, and the mod of the 196 comm actively defended them.

That's fucking disgusting. Imagine selling your soul for internet traffic from people that hate your very existence.

can confirm, actually had to talk to Ada in dms to get her to take action against blahaj zone chasers who were being weird at my blahaj account one of whom called me chaserphobic for saying i wouldnt feel comfortable being around a chaser after he said some really chasery stuff

the context and the replies
can't find the original conversation in DMs with Ada unfortunately because it was on my fedi account that runs on a fork of misskey which is absolutely awful for finding old DMs

They're chaser-inclusive first, trans-inclusive second

They did the thing where liberals keep siding with anti-communists and inevitably become fascists
