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
I agree though I think the main strain of Fascism in America is Christian fascism, which colors their hostility towards LGBT people and ideas. Trump was popular among that type because he basically declared that open racism is back on the menu.
I think those people are drawn to anti-LGBT stuff because if you aren't LGBT to begin with it's a very easy set of rules to follow. And they would like to in order to claim to be religiously righteous follow at least some rules they can tangentially trace back to the bible and all the actual stuff the new testament and bible tells you to do is too hard so they picked one rule in leviticus and arbitrarily decided that one is really important. Which is pretty stupid because they don't do the same for the other rules in that section like not shaving, no tattoos, no eating pork, be nice to immigrants etc
those heretics just can't resist wearing mixed fabrics
