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

Does this guy work as a projectionist professionally or does he just have natural talent?

Also I love it when trans people are described as some sort of eldritch being from outside of time and space, whose gender is beyond human comprehension. To look upon a person saying "actually neither boy nor girl" is to immediately explode into a kaleidoscopic spray of bodily fluids transubstantiated into the physical essence of madness itself

Oh look, another one of these ”I'm left-wing, but also who cares about this gender crap?” assholes who'll devolve into spouting right-wing anti-trans talking points, probably something about women's sports, if you give them the slightest pushback thinky-felix

Yeah later down one of the comment chains they start talking about puberty blockers for kids despite saying they're all for rights for trans people if they're binary trans people so they definitely get more scratched as they go.

huge fan of describing having a job that you hate as "NEET-adjacent." the only Real Working Class of course are musclebound white men in overalls who clock in at the hitting-rocks-with-hammers and steam factory every day, and never complain or make trouble for the boss, and never take handouts from the government, and don't even know what a podcast or a pronoun is.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 45 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I said basically the same thing to him lol "You're one of those fucking chud-adjacent losers who think that "working class" means white 40something factory worker with a beard, a wife and 2.5 kids, and a litany of bigoted views huh?"

[–] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 39 points 2 years ago

This guy calls people with jobs NEET-adjacent but probably also thinks landlording is a job

How is non-binary "beyond human comprehension"? It's so simple. You're not a 0 or a 1? You're not one of two socially acceptable identities? Then you're something else. That's all it means. Non-binary isn't a singular gender - it's an out group of people who aren't the socially acceptable genders. It's much like how intersex isn't a sex itself, but rather it's an out-group of everyone who falls outside of the socially acceptable sexes.

Being LGBT myself, I have grown increasingly annoyed and distraught at the inclusion of weird marginal gender issues into the fight for gay rights. I’m very sorry, but my country doesn’t have a Supreme Court that can just legislate gay marriage. If I ever want to be able to have a family, I need to convince people around me that gay people are normal working people who deserve rights like everyone else.

This absolute mastermind of socio-political strategy hasn’t even finished climbing up the ladder and already wants to kick it down. Man what the fuck! badeline-bruh

fucking how? if anything i am the final form of gender abolition. i have already abolished my gender.

[–] Zuzak@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Generally the claim transphobes make is that queer people acknowledging that gender norms exist are what cause them to exist (and not the much, much higher number of cishet people who reinforce those norms).

In this case, they're pretty obviously a fascist trying very badly to pretend they're not a fascist, so their arguments are even more incoherent than normal.

The Tumblr and TikTok memes part is such projection

Every single anti-communist "leftist" I've met admit that they primarily get their politics from YouTube video essays, BreadTube, Reddit comments with lots of upvotes, CNN headlines, Twitter, and skimming Reuters articles written by a bachelor's in journalism

They've never actually looked into any sort of data or statistics, never researched the sources cited in the news, no cross reference checking, never read anything written outside of the West or even the Anglosphere, and never read anything political by an actual scientist or historian

I'm really tired of the nonbinary denial. Sex atypical development is present in all sex dymorphic species. It's natural. I'm genuinely convinced that if any person who wasn't ideologically charged against enbie people was told someone who looks like me is an enbie it would make perfect sense to them. Same people who hate enbies are happy to hate on people whose anatomy doesn't fall neatly under female or male and it's too tiring.

Chuds think that we as a collective species are only allowed to focus on the One True Issue afflicting humanity at a time, like reality is a game of Civilization or some shit, and any other problem no matter how lesser than that is insignificant and a waste of time to address while other, more important problems exist. Even though literally every problem they just described is caused by capitalism/fascism (but I repeat myself) and leftists are clear about abolishing capitalism and fixing all the problems it created, to include disease, hunger, homelessness, and everything else that isn't being fixed because it's not profitable to do so.

Libs have never heard the word "intersectionality" before so they can't understand it when they see it. They can only understand Marvel and Harry Potter viewpoints

Holy shit, imagine being this triggered by someone not fitting into the hegemonic gender norms and concern-trolling about climate change and homelessness over it.

Bruh. You can just refer to non-binary folks by their preferred pronouns. Half the time enbies are quite comfortable with gendered pronouns and it's not as if there isn't a historical usage of singular-they which has been established in English usage going back to the 1300s.

If it's not a big deal and there are more pressing matters that the left needs to face then quit whining and just use people's preferred pronouns already instead of trying to turn this into some huge ideological war.

and it’s not as if there isn’t a historical usage of singular-they which has been established in English usage going back to the 1300s.

yeahhhhh but it's, like, totally differeeeeent when singular they is referring to a generic or unknown person 😭😭😭😭😭 singular they for specific, known persons only dates to the 2000s 😭😭😭😭😭 i literally can't call someone they if i know their name or else i will pissé pant 😭😭😭😭😭

Typical fascist. Like, I really just stumbled into articles about gender identity and stuff about third-gender designations in other countries and cultures close to two decades ago. You really gotta go out of your way to be an ignorant, evil person.

I sorta wanted to post to c/askhexbear for this specific case. Like do other instances mods not respond to our reports? FFS, this guy is bigoted AF. Maybe I'm too optimistic, but I imagine his kind not flying with most liberal forums out there.
