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

The GOP in Texas have been running attack ads featuring a trans-masc student wrestler that was forced to wrestle with girls due to the anti-trans Texas laws that already exist. Their ad is seemingly against their own laws effects, but of course none of that matters to the optics of an attack ad in Texas.

This Dem could have easily pointed any of this out, but of course goes with the worst option of being even more explicitly anti-trans. the-democrat

Their ad is seemingly against their own laws effects,

The point of this type of thing is to legislate trans people out of being allowed to exist indirectly.
