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

Imma take a look

Not surprising. Being trans feels a lot like being straight.

I hope they mean this in like a very very good way

Grandma doesn’t have a gender and doesn’t realise why people who have genders think they’re important. She’d be equally happy identifying as a man and she doesn’t realise that’s unusual.

okay please explain to me what this means I legit am just ????ing at this right now

Hexbear is transphobic. They harassed me the whole time I was there

I bet my life savings they were saying dumb libshit or discriminatory bullshit and high tailed it because they got rightly dunked for it

oh god they mainly post on beehaw, Lemmygrad basically created that community after a bunch of lemmy gusanos raged that their terminal liberalism got absolutely torn to shreds by the effortposting gods.

Okay they seem to be completely genuine too, because they have good takes mixed in with it. Critical support to them dragging CookieJarObserver (some of you remember this "I AM THE OBSERVER" fucking weirdo) through shit on Israel.

Now that i've looked through, you could be right, because they have hexbear takes everywhere besides when they're hating on hexbear, okay and some libshit about finding 'unbiased leftist sources'

my real contention is finding out their posting on hexbear, what were they arguing about. Give it to us you nerd, I dare you!

I'm going to be on the side of 'they're just really libshit' because its just too authentic

From its lemmy.blahaj.zone modlog (where it's also banned):

I'm not a troll. You can go look up my new Hexbear account I made after they told me Hexbear wasn't transphobic, and you can see me talking about my gender consistently for the past week, and you can see transphobes on Hexbear calling me an anti-hexbear troll because they think swarmgenders are a joke.

Dronerights?

IS THIS LITERALLY DRONERIGHTS?

A swarmgender is type of xenogender that I’ve only ever seen used by systems. Dronerights in particular called itself dronegender, which I’d never heard of before.

I remember something about literally identifying as a borg drone? Also something about how communication and understanding with others was sex and therefore talking to neurotypicals was SV?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Huh, I assumed it was identifying as multiple entities internally and your outward expression is a consensus of that, or something similar to that.

I kinda jetted out of those threads early because they were extremely quick to accuse anyone of being a secret reactionary for innocuous misunderstandings. I've been around that sort of person before and it's exhausting even if you think they're right.

Dronerights never identified as having schizophrenia or anything.of the sort and instead talked about the "ergogic swarm" in reference to other people.
