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

I'd ask if this is intended to be as intimidating as it appears to be but obviously the answer is yes. Isn't this literally what they mock the cultural revolution in China of doing? Of turning people into willing spies or enforcers for the 'movement/ideology'?
There's something about anticommunist pearl clutchers. Like they don't actually disagree with the things they accuse Stalin, Mao etc of doing, they think that's shit's extremely cool and wish that they could do it themselves to their own political enemies. The pearl clutching is therefore entirely performative, "oh the Commies banned books they don't like unlike us the free speech warriors"/"we should ban every book that depicts a non cishet person."
Some chuds are honest enough about admitting they believe that all "sides" are just as selfish and ruthless and want to fuck over everyone else. Their belief is clownishly wrong, but it's how they feel.
I've definitely been in 100 arguments with yanks about how draconian australian laws requiring you to vote are, now look at them, haha!
you can ruin your ballot and get your name checked off, there's no one forcing you to actually cast your vote, blahblah democracy
