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

how would one start such a conflict without mods nuking the post?
You'd have to find the stuff that they're doing grey-area on, or that they've gotten lazy about, or that their mods actively don't want to remove so they let them sit for hours and hours before acting (mods pretend not to have seen stuff all the time when they actually have). A lot of modteams don't actually wanna moderate the stuff they're being forced to moderate due to admins.
After that it's figuring out how to pick a fight with elsewhere and convince their modteams to write complaints. It has the inherent risk of causing trouble with another socialist sub but honestly if one sub dies to take that shit hole with it then it'd be worth it because they'd never let a copy be made whereas socialist subs will always reappear. "jerk" would be burned for them and anti-tankie spaces too probably.
In the wake of it being destroyed you'd ideally make a bunch of "copy" subs like "anti-tankie-aktion" and shit. Then report these copy subs so they're banned as attempts to remake it. This would poison all future attempts at such a space because admins would then regard all antitankie spaces as attempts to resurrect the original.
