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

No idea who any of these people are, and I refuse to learn.

You wake up in a cold sweat.

Vaush? Destiny? Horse cocks? Dark Brandon? These thoughts vanish from your mind like dew under the rising sun. You are Constantine XI, Basileus of Rome. The Ottomans have laid siege to Constantinople

it's also kinda funny to me that all three of them also dont want to be around each other.

I'm out of the loop. Who are they and what did they do?

Uhh Brianna Wu(Not pictured) recently got outed from leaked group chat messages as a transphobe who posts trans womens photos in the group chat then calls them slurs.

Destiny(left) got banned from twitch for advocating for the use of white supremacist mass shootings against BLM protestors.

Vaush(center) known for CSAM apologism and sexual harrassment allegations.

Keffals(right) known for a public fight against kiwifarm, later accused of misusing donations from that fight to fund cocaine habit, as well as being a rabid clout chaser who does shit like use private DMs from an ex-gf to make a video accusing her of supporting genocide and being a tankie.

[โ€“] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd encourage everyone to read Wu's apologies today (and the slur filled dm's if you can handle it). It's pretty wild to watch someone who built their brand on something try to backpedal slurs about the thing.

The QTs are something too. At one point she retweeted someone supporting her for being secretly based in the DM's.

[โ€“] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

The apology is so terrible I'm rather surprised she even posted it. "I know it's wrong for me to say this stuff, but that person was an absolute jerk to me." Then she's liking posts calling her based which more or less sells the entire thing as a farce.

I remember when she was harassed by goobergators but now it seems like she turned out to be a goober herself.

Oh shit I was right!

misusing donations from that fight to fund cocaine habit

Pretty based tbh

[โ€“] [email protected] 39 points 1 year ago

I mean, I don't have the energy to care that much but it does seem like it would be really shitty to promise that the money would be used to fight transphobic canadian cops and a gangstalking website that basically every notable trans person lives in fear of, and then just spend it on coke that makes you pick annoying fights online for more coke money.

I don't know either but my guess is left-liberal twitch streamers with terrible takes on two or more of the following:

Imperialism

Homeless people

Trans people

Black people

Reactionary bingo is a depressing game but any one of those could count as the "Free" square.

At first I was feeling smug that I didnโ€™t know who these people are, but after reading the thread I realize I know of all of them but they all look different than I remember and now I am filled with shame

Damn, I just realized Vaush looks like a palette-swap of Matt Walsh.

Damn, I cant believe the other other gamergate lady turned out to be transphobic and a grifter.

Also based on my expert menswear knowledge(I follow that one guy on twitter) I can conclude that a dress shirt + tie without a coat is bad fashion, D- grade for Mr Destiny.

Big "my beard is my personality" energy from those two. I don't mean the existence of the beard, I mean the body language, the contextual presentation, and of course the chuddy shit they're both involved in and advocating for.

[โ€“] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Vaush is apparently 6 years younger than Destiny.

He does not look 6 years younger than Destiny.

Being a grift streamer ages you terribly.

[โ€“] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There are streamers with bad politics who I imagine are still fun to hang out with.

These 3 are just miserable in every way.
