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 [email protected]

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

Honestly, I'm fucking tired. There is a God damn sticky in every r/LSC post that says it is a commie subreddit, by commies, for commies, and these motherfucking dweebs are upset about it being full of commies? I could write whole essay about this fucking post. Jesus fucking Christ.

The lead mod, now deleted account, femimarxi, purged the ML LSC bots like back in 2018. The banned mods made capitalism_in_decay.

Reddit is very much a narrative controlled site, by ngos and state actors.

I kind of just stick with trueanon sub now

Reddit is very much a narrative controlled site, by ngos and state actors.

This has been my takeaway for a long time. Reddit over the last 5 or so years isn't Reddit from 10 years ago. A lot of the struggle sessions feel a lot like Facebook comment fights too. Something is trying to "mainstream social media-ify" it for sure. (I think I've seen ngos before but not sure I know what it is but I get what you are saying.)

I've mostly been hanging out in /r/communismmemes and /r/thedeprogram lately, which is funny because I didn't know about those subs until after I joined Lemmygrad and then Hexbear.
