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 can understand GenZedong, since they're a pretty tankie instance...

The rest... you should explain for yourself individually...

'Hostile', 'Dm Harrassment', et 'Rule 2' which is NSFW?

Maybe Rule 2 here refers to lemmy.ml's rule 2, rather than the community rule 2. Instance rule 2 is "Be respectful, especially when disagreeing. Everyone should feel welcome here."

Edit: these are the comments made by this user that were removed:

The last one references !comics@lemmy.ml's rule 1 ("be civil").

The antepenultimate comment made in this thread (about a news article about the increasing amount of african students enrolling in russian language classes) references lemmy.ml's rule 1 ("No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.")

The others are about lemmy.ml's rule about respectfulness.

Ooooo "bollocks" suggests they're British.

Are you up Starmer's arse or up Rishi's arse @PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@lemmy.ml ?

Tell him to go to raddle, lemmy.world, or back to beehaw.org.... (tech spaces like infosec. and discuss.tch maybe, lemm.ee, or sh.itjustworks)...

Thanks for proving once again that libs are incapable of having a rational conversation when at risk of having their world view changed

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago
