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

Imagine paying money to pretend like it's 1996 on the internet

i was already sold on it, no need to make it sound cooler

i would call this kind of myopia 'stultifying' but i'm afraid if they ever read that word they might segfault like a chicken staring up at rain and die

Why is this coming back? Like calling things "gay" and using the r word are super popular again, it's like I'm in Boston

[–] Xx_Aru_xX@hexbear.net 39 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I call everything gay but positevily

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The r-slur never really went away.

[–] JamesConeZone@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn. It definitely did in my circles after like 2012, but that is a huge bummer to learn

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

It was a an ongoing struggle session back at r/CTH

It’s very annoying when my non socialist friends just randomly drop it because I thought we’ve matured past our elementary school vocabulary lol.

[–] Aquilae@hexbear.net 31 points 1 year ago

Well, time to start life as a gay man. Any 'bears on here want to walk me through grinder?

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

Even better.

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

Gay in the word's old meaning. It makes me gay, ie. happy, to see China support Palestinian liberation.

I'm gonna start using straight as a slur

Is Australia stuck in 2012?

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

Worse, it's stuck with Australians.

As usual, if you see a Southern Cross its either going to be an extremely good or extremely bad take.
