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

This probably says something about me but I just assumed the scenario was about the erasure that you can experience by being in an opposite-gender relationship where your partner is cishet and you are queer.

But no. The straights are oppressed because there's one bar which they are unwelcome in. Of course.

Reminds me of the crackers in Japan or Korea when they find the very rare bars or restaurants that say "Japanese only" and hold that up as an example of how "Asians are the most racist".

Like bruh I don't disagree that those bars are being racist but they're not state employees executing unarmed minorities.

This might be controversial to say on this website so sorry if I offend anyone,

but I don't think you should be able to take large, wild jungle cats into any establishment, be they het or ace or gay.

edit1: downbears? really? Real mature.

Big time “Ladies nights at bars is sexist against men” vibes

Sexual Orientation - you are refused entry to a gay bar because you walked in holding hands with your heterosexual partner who still hasn't paid their bar tab.

I've been obviously straight in several gay bars and this never happened.

They need to fill up the bar with eye candy, they know what brings people in.

Is this fursecution?

There's so many heterosexual bars and you need to get into the gay one?

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago

The sorts of people who invent these obviously fictitious accounts are the ones who would loudly complain about everything in the gay bar anyway should they be allowed in
