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

LGBT is when you post shitty Reddit memes about being a heccin thigh highs catgirl programmer and nothing else

Am I the only one who finds those memes infantilising?

As a thigh high cat-girl, I really don't appreciate that it's turned us into a stereotype. It's genuinely upsetting. Only my online friends and the folks I'm close to were supposed to know that about me and now it's the first thing anyone assumes.

I just got thigh highs 'cos they're comfy and helpful for keeping warm in the winter. Now everyone assumes I'm some sort of internet catgirl. :(

SAME, thigh high compression socks ftw!

But yeah, like, I AM an Internet cat girl but I don't want people assuming that about me, it feels dirty for some reason
