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

Everybody who didn't like the worst aspects of reddit have been spending less and less time there since they gor rid of third party people.

At this point it's Facebook with a 20 year younger target demo.

yeah, it seems the quality of posts took a nosedive since then. not that it was going too well before.

Algorithm sucks ass now compared to a year ago and every third post being an add that intentionally mimics reddit posts tonget you to click on it aren't working.

Also I am by no means overly edgy or something but anytime I've tried to make an account in the last year it's been instantly permabanned for ban evasion because I got banned from worldnews for saying

"I am against giving unlimited weapons to proud self avowed neo nazis because after the war they'll still have the weapons and use them for neo nazi stuff"

And from politics for calling someone a naive dipshit

So anybody politcally left of being ok with arming people with black sun patches on their chest has probablly been purged.

Third party apps still work with revanced patching FYI.

But the latent fascism has only gotten more blatant over there

You can't even visit Reddit now if you have a VPN or if you don't have an account.
