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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

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 just want to know what this thing is they get out of the “just glide” fascist or the “if framed patriotically” fascist that they don’t get out of the foaming at the mouth fascist. It sounds like they’re talking about local leaders, so no big national issues at stake. That plus the fact that they’re talking about abstracts instead of specific policies they got accomplished through their lesser evil strategy makes me think they either didn’t get anything out of those “respectable” fascists or what they did get was laughable.

What they get out of it is the fascist that isn't loud about the fascism. Sure, it's still fascism, but at least he's not ruining the positive vibes by constantly reminding you about it.
