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

The comment he was fired for.

Our thread to get him fired. I'm sure there were a lot more people reporting him as well, but I don't care, we're the ones responsible.

"anti-palestinian"

That's putting "literally called for ethnic cleansing" mildly

She's actually a CEO of a bank so it's fine

Seth Crosby spent nearly 20 years with the genetics dept. ...

Fuck that racist ghoul lol glad he's far away from having academic power over hundreds at a time in the context of anything genetic.

Wait, is he actually fired?

But a spokeswoman for Washington University said that the professor, Seth Crosby, was not fired, that he remains employed but the university is “following up.”

When his twitter was still up he said he'd already been fired but maybe he just assumed that

Maybe, they got him to say free Palestine though

[–] Judge_Jury@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

Lmao hopefully that's just the start

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

No, it looks like he was saying he expected to be fired.

[–] the_kid@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

Wow. Uhh... do I get to paint a kill marker on the side of my phone now?

I guess we have to keep doing this. From my understanding it's what a lot of antifa researchers have been doing for years to fight American fascists; find out who they are, then tell everyone they know who they are and what they believe. Supposedly it's worked very well for deplatforming local-scale fash movements over the years.

Posting is praxis confirmed

I wonder where he can go for employment now? I'm sure there's a lot of countries which would take him.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago
