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

MODERATORS
It's a real goofy time over there, haha. A lib tried to Ultra me and tell me Lemmy is Capitalist because posting is Value, and asserted that I haven't read Marx, only being exposed to Lenin via memes.
Deeply unserious people.
tell them to make a hexbear account and try to prove their point here
If they try to swing back again I will, but I think they finally realized how cooked they are.
That, or they were trolling the entire time to make me look better, but it's .world so I doubt it lol
If a website (like Twitter or facebook) make money off ads and our posts bring viewers to ads then yeah us posting creates value in some way for the capitalists who own the websites.
I don't think lemmy has ads though? I never see them if it does.
Wtf was their point anyway? "You claim to hate capitalism, yet you participate in capitalism. Curious!" posting? Classic reactionary dipshittery
Lemmy has no ads whatsoever, it's FOSS. Some Lemmy apps do, like Sync.
Their point seemed to be that the devs are actually hypocrites and admins are basically bourgeoisie.
Your comments there are very funny
I do try, haha. Thanks, comrade!
