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

:sicko-hexbear:

Otherwise gee fucking idiots I guess you realy needed a whole research department to figure things out like

•Alt-Right supergroup activity remains near its all-time high. This activity has been high since the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago in August (Fig. 1).

•The forums with the greatest use of Violent/Aggressive discourse in November were in Health Misinformation, scoring higher than Incels/Femcels and the Extreme Right (Fig. 7).

•Reference to sex crimes was up 13% in December and was up 32% since August (Fig. 11).

:the-democrat: reading this : "Great, its all according to the plan. Carry on mrMcdoofus, keep us informed, this is very useful information, it will come in handy when we decide to do absolutely nothing for the next 2 years."

These posting numbers are pathetic. Less than 800 posts per day? Get back in the posting mines!

Extreme leftism requires self-defence against the bourgeoisie. I'd like to know what these supposed other extreme left spaces are that are like "let's keep asking very kindly for factory owners to give over their factories even while we get ground into dust"

This month’s report is run without data from Reddit because of the migration of the Pushshift API. Reddit accounts for nearly half of the material used in this report. Its exclusion adversely impacts the tracking of Conspiracy/Fringe and Extreme-Left forums

What left wing forums are there on Reddit now?

At no point did they call us anacho-communists though :deeper-sadness:

Kinda surprised by this tbh. I know antivax weirdos and such were not the most pleasant of people but worse than the nazis?

I might call for violence because some 3rd party didn't correctly conclude that this site is not extreme-left, but just a bunch of libs.

[–] JuneFall@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

That is correct. When the chapo subreddit and others were hot shit they had better stances than here. However I feel that the baseline understanding of this site is quite nice.

How do we have so much violent rhetoric without being connected to any actual violence

Improving society somewhat is violence and aggression :liberalism:

[–] DerEwigeAtheist@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

We shouldn't settle for "somewhat". We want all of the power for the working class, it's complete emancipation, not just "some" of the power.

Let's be extreme. We want it all. For a new, kinder and more equal world. Whatever it takes

Some men, faint-hearted, ever seek
Our programme to retouch,
And will insist, whene’er they speak
That we demand too much.
’Tis passing strange, yet I declare
Such statements give me mirth,
For our demands most moderate are,
We only want the earth. - James Connolly

Holy shit, we're in the news! We've made it big

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

I think we should invite Mr. Richard Lee Rogers from the Youngstown State University Dept. of Criminal Justice & Consumer Sciences to go on Hexbear and do some kind of reverse AMA. He seems like he really needs some political education.
