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
Called himself Wintermute. Exteme reddit libertarian energy
Did he misread Neuromancer, or did he never read Neuromancer?
Neuromancer is up there with Fight Club and American Psycho in terms of literature that is genuinely good, but which still is often a red flag. Like with the other two, there seem to be a lot of people out there who just aggressively missed the point. I've never met someone who used the handle Wintermute online who wasn't also a huge asshole.
People that add the fictional last name "Rahl" to their online handle are super fucking sus, too. :sus:
Probably just plays The Long Dark
