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
all this for being banned for a week for saying "shooting nazis makes you the same as the nazis"
this is so out of place and context (idrc about it) but how is a ban justified for a single opinion comment like that lmao
~~For the record and so people stop reporting it, user was comm b& for a week for posting this. Comment left up for those who want to continue dunking.~~
update: I decided AutomatedPossum was right, ban is now permanent
I'm sorry I was too diplomatic in my response to the question. I've been gone a while, I feel like I need to "be civil" everywhere online. It wont happen again.
That single opinion
well there's the genocide of indigenous americans, chattel slavery, the hindustan famines, colonialism in general, and... i dunno, the dead romanov kids?
Don't get me wrong, America isn't good or anything. In the context of ww2, the allies were far better then the axis powers.
yeah i was just doing the not what they meant thing.
Dont restart the Romanov discussion
If someone is willing to defend nazis, and tries to "both sides" nazis and people fighting against them, they are a nazi and should not be welcome anywhere.
i have absolutely no insight into what is going through that moderator's head. i don't care to justify their actions on a board that i did not know about until i read that thread. i came to hexbear after r/cth got banned and then went offline for a few years so i don't know all of the lemmy drama lore.
i just think it's really funny that someone is this upset about being temporarily banned from a forum for being a tedious centrist loser.
Pro-nazi apologetics will not be tolerated, under any circumstance
If your opinion is that stupid then yeah
Just make a new account.
There is no due process here and there doesn't need to be
the only problem i see here is that somebody who openly defended nazis was banned for just a week, that's way too lenient
You're right, made it permanent
