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.
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

What does authoritarian even mean to these people?
the transgender people banned me
Authoritarian = When countries I don't like have laws
I've never heard it described so simply, so succinctly, so beautifully
Authoritarianism is when we stop fascists from lynching trans people. Freedom is when we say "I don't agree with the fascists openly planning how to kill me but if I protest then liberals will stop supporting me so I'll just try and ignore them"
It's vibes based as usual, so something like "thing I disagree with"
I think it's just "when country I don't like". I really don't think there's anything to it at all.
They genuinely think every socialist state relies on concentration camps, including modern China.
Authoritarian is when countries try to undermine the dollar or seek alternatives
Freedom is when your country allows fascist websites and has child detention centers
That can't be it though, because the US prisons are objectively concentration camps, and these idiots love making excuses for the US
They would say every criminal deserves to be there and we need to be putting all the homeless in prisons too
It's extremely common for burgers to think that literally everyone who lives in AES countries - except for members of the ruling party - are slaves.
we are not content to just vooooote
Try to tell them that the US government is authoritarian and you will find out what they think it means real quick lol.
