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
Sorry for the lack of link, site is reactionary so I can't link directly, and trying to save it to web.archive just gives a blank page EDIT: citrussy_capybara kindly provided a link to a working archive. CW for (obviously) mega transphobia.
Anyway, here's all the proof you need that TERFism isn't about protecting women from men, it is and always has been about hating trans people.
I assume this is some stupid slur that I haven't heard before?
Exactly.
More (extremely transphobic) details:
TIM stands for "trans-identified male", it's what TERFs call trans women and transfem people more generally, and also apparently cis woman Imane Khelif (I am become jonkler).There's a transmasc counterpart, TIF for "trans-identified female".
I'm sure a huge part of the draw here is that Tim is a man's name while Tif (short for Tiffany) is a woman's name.
It's more "They call us TERFs and we don't like it so we will make up an acronym for THEM and see how THEY like it!" It really is that petty. Also the trans denialism.
