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

Looks like Steam is doing the same thing. This does feel just a little bit like the War on Christmas complaint, though.
Christians aren’t an oppressed minority group or subject of colonization. Christmas is as dominant as ever, it’s not under threat or being attacked in any serious way.
Also, the war on Christmas complaint would have validity if a bunch of people from another dominant culture were trying to take it over and rename it and strip it of everything specifics. Having a broad term “happy holidays” for polite conversation that covers multiple holidays (Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Winter Solstice) is fine and different than specifically taking Christmas and renaming it and doing a massive push everywhere to stop calling it Christmas.
These are fair points.
