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

Trans ideology/gender ideology means the idea that gender and sex are different.

One idea doesn't really constitute an ideology. These fascists always make a mountain out of a molehill

It's not just that, it's a deliberate attempt at both dehumanizing trans people and not acknowledging our existence. They avoid entirely to use any term like "trans woman" or "trans person" that refers to an actual human being targeted by them, it's always an impersonal, abstract "gender ideology" or "trans agenda" at play. The fact that their policies directly threaten the lifes and dignity of actual human beings must be tuned out at all costs, because not doing so would mean admitting that we are out here and exist. If they absolutely can't avoid referring to one of us and can't use slurs or misgendering because they need to keep the mask on, they will stick exclusively to wordings like "trans rights activist" even when that person has done zero praxis besides coming out as trans and just living their life.
