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

because it's gender neutral. similar thing with folks(/folx, ugh) In some cases it's also used to be condescending/ironic, plus s just love appropriating turns of phrase from black people
There is a bad wiff of gone off mayo of it now alright. The constant use of folk in lefty writing is annoying too.
Better than 'You people'.💁♂️
we should appropriate from new jersey instead. i'm gonna start saying "youse"
is "cats" acceptable?
This is "dawg" erasure
i have a very vague memory of a 90s cartoon doing a 50s pastiche where the bathroom signs said cats and something else. not sure if that was a joke or if that usage of cat has contextual gender
poor lenny
My wife's got Pennsylvania family that says "yinz"
"folks" is gender neutral
so is people?
