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
I agree with this 100%. If you ask Vaush fans why they like Vaush they rarely say he convinced them of anything, they say they like him cuz he said stuff they already agreed with. They will and do often turn on him when he breaks with the narrative, they don't follow him blindly. His job is to echo their opinions back to them.
I don't think many people who fall for Vaush's grift had much potential to be actual comrades in the first place, if Vaush didn't exist Vaush fans would have to create one.
Vaush and his fanbase really aren't that different from chuds who watch Ben Shapiro and Crowder, ready to turn on them the minute they move away from their preferred narrative.
