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

  • "Race traitor" definition of tankie (AES citizens aren't described as tankies, Communist leaders today and historically aren't identified as tankies. only westerners who admire the former categories can be tankies)
  • Study is entirely focused to reddit communities (a platform used exclusively by losers and cranks)
  • "Data Driven understanding" but it's just the authors own conjured impression that Tankies care more about "state-driven events" and not "policing, climate change, healthcare, housing". Author should choose a random PSL branch instagram and see what they post about if they believe this.
  • glasses-off "Acceptance of X narratives" - glasses-on making a conclusion based on analysis. Fuck, just because you disagree with someone, doesn't mean you can write them as if they're not reasoning, coherent, analytical agents. this baseline applies to chuds too if one was to seriously try and understand them also.
