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

I’m just to figure out why the Hexbear communities are even federated into some Lemmy instances. They are blatantly racist to users.

What did you say that made people “racist” to you? big-honk

This is how it always works for them: when Democrats win, that means voters love that sensible centrism, the party isn’t doing anything wrong. When democrats lose, that’s because purity leftists sabotaged the election, the democrats didn’t do anything wrong. See, if the Democrats never do anything wrong then they never have to confront their powerlessness to affect change to the political system.

So these are the coward-ass losers who "preemptively" defederated from Hexbear before we so much as glanced in their direction?

Can't say I'm shocked by the quality of posts, a fuckin crying baby in a hat? The dipshits from the old Donald sub had more creativity than that, absolute dregs of reddit

Dae le bots le fellow redditors beep boop.

I'd say it's frightening that so many libs seem to think a firm, principled refusal to participate in gencide is some kind of soviet psyop but i'm mostly just numb.

Ah, you’re privileged enough to think you’re insulated from any actual consequences of the election and fuck those other people, right?

Considering the number of trans people on Hexbear, what are they talking about? Trans people are a big target. And I don't just identify as non-binary, I have it on legal documents too.

Or do they think we're all wealthy? mutual_aid is quite a busy sub, and while the total donation amount isn't small, it's not really all that big either.

Admittedly we do have a bit of a anti-cracker-aktion problem, but em_poc is still fairly active.

But also, Hexbear is just a shitposting site. I (and I'm sure most everybody else here) do organizing and take real action in real life.

The kind of user who is convinced hexbear is run by foreign government agents tend to also think hexbears are faking being trans.

They should at least try to be a little creative with the joke to balance out how they are clearly the maddest they have ever been

@DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe you did your best, thank you for trying rat-salute-2

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Weird. Libs are the ones who've been peddling Russiagate as a legitimate threat to American democracy. You'd think they'd be a bit more scared of us given our posting power.

Right wingers are so good at memeing

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 37 points 1 year ago

Damn, I didn't know Ohio, Michigan, and Georgia are this cringe for having so many L*dditors living in those states.

Running Biden as a candidate is letting Trump win. Libs should be ashamed that they're supporting the one guy just as genocidal as Trump

The White liberal is a person who defines themselves as White, as an oppressor, in short, and retreats in horror from that designation. However, they only retreat halfway, disavowing the title without giving up the privileges or tearing out, as it were. The fundamental trait of the White liberal is their desire to differentiate themselves psychologically from White Americans on the issue of race. The White liberal wants to think and wants others, namely people of color, to embrace brotherhood. White liberals have two basic aims: to prevent polarization and prevent racial conflict." - Lerone Bennet Jr

Or, perhaps even more direct here, "White liberals are attempting to work within a system which is opposed to basic change, and they do not try nor do they desire to change that system in any of its fundamentals." - Ralph Bunche

Lemmy.world is like 4chan for LIBs. The same type of rabid obsession with people they feel superior to.

It's just Reddit 2 for people who are too ideological to remain on Reddit but have the same general political opinions as everyone on Reddit.
