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

MODERATORS
we gave up. they won't address the transphobia, racism, and ableism coming from the 196 mod team so we're defederating them.
I'm usually not a fan of defederation. But those people honestly just make me sick. They sound like feds in a rainbow overcoat. I'm glad you guys were here to bring the issue to light again though, and seem to have brought some of their users with you.
same. I really wanted to stick it out in the name of trans solidarity but we can't subject our vulnerable members to it. reading the posts there is bizzare -- they're to the right of every reddit trans community, and that's saying something.
