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 allowed in "anti-tankies" from 196, and that became basically the only comm that matters. 196 is nominally pro-trans but does so in a really weirdly horny way, and because 196 is predominantly cis it comes off very chasery. The admins of blahaj refused to take action agaisnt chasery posts, and the mod of the 196 comm actively defended them.
They don't even hide it:
@[email protected] you tried
never trust liberals
i got banned and the comment removed for calling someone out for fascist apologia, but one of the times someone was openly transphobic at me in that comm it took like a full day for the comment to be removed and they weren't even banned from the comm, let alone the instance
like when i brought it up to ada personally she told me that comm mods dont have the power to hand out bans and once they do anything to it resolves the report so she never saw it and like idk enough about mod powers and lemmy to know whether thats true or not so i just accepted it
Really shows their priorities as a "trans instance". Easier to ban trans socialists (re: 90% of the IRL trans community) than chasers and holocaust deniers
Also comm mods can ban from comms but it isn't site wide
can confirm, actually had to talk to Ada in dms to get her to take action against blahaj zone chasers who were being weird at my blahaj account one of whom called me chaserphobic for saying i wouldnt feel comfortable being around a chaser after he said some really chasery stuff
