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

I fixed the trans athlete "problem" a long time ago but nobody wants to hear it. Just get rid of sports where biology plays a major role. Swimming? Gone. Running? Buhbye. Football? Seeya. At a professional level all these athletes are doing the exact same level of training. The only real difference is their genetics. You're cheering for DNA structure.

Either that or get rid of all restrictions on drugs and body modifications. If someone wants to have hydraulic arms to help their shotput, go nuts. What gender is that roided slab of muscle? You can't even see their head past their delts, so who cares. Was that quarterback born with a penis? They have tank tracks for legs now.

Professional swimming is already the most transmisogynistic sport that I'm aware of, so yeah, to try to restrict children's swimming as well... stfu-terf

The replies make me wish I still had a twitter account so I could say something deeply unwise to these people and get it banned that way. Unfortunately you can only directly threaten to cannibalize someone once under conditions like that

Ben Dreyfuss and Destiny are shifting the lib rhetoric in a more based direction, in the way that only annoying self-important debate nerds dare to do.
