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

One of the most active recent threads about US politics on .ml already have multiple comments calling muslim Americans "stupid" and worse for not wanting to support and vote for government that murders their families and friends.

If Harris loses the election, democrats are going to openly embrace islamophobia and become even more racist.

Harris doesn't even need to lose. You can browse Everything and see liberals calling them barbaric today. Communities in Lemmy.zip in particular.

Oh definitely, I'm just saying that it's going to become even more overt and acceptable in "polite company".
