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
shouts out to everyone who stayed with us through bunker mode. that was certainly something.
What is tankie. I've only seen hexbears saying that
Originally a British communist who supported Khrushchev sending the Soviet military, which included tanks, to aid the Hungarian People's Republic against the uprising in 1956, as named by those who disagreed with it. It took off online a while ago and now means something different to everyone who says it, anywhere from strictly Marxism-Leninism to anyone with politics further left that appointing Trump emperor of Earth. We're usually being at least one kind of sarcastic when we use it.
