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 love hexbear because of the weird detailed emojis, I download every single one I find, i have like 7 by now.

Last two are my favorites.

A gem

BTW how do emojis work on hexbear? Like I doubt you have an emoji keyboard like on Android/iOS with your 5.000 emojis, must be unpractical. Do you telepathically communicate the emoji you want to insert to your device?

We have both an emoji button that lets us search through them all manually, and a shortcut that auto searches from keywords if we type something following a semicolon

Epic, wish we had a similar thing on lemmy.ml, even better yet federated emojis. :biden-our-savior: :99-percent-hitler: :tankie-adjacent:

Federated emojis would simply be too powerful.

I do want :saltine-headassery: and :debate-pervert: from lemmygrad tho...

Oh yes, the denguin

I don't even know a context in which half of these emojis would be used but they're still funny I mean
