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

like, basically everyone i follow on there is trans! like 70% of posts that make it big these days are by trans people, especially trans women! what a baffling move*
*i mean, it's very obvious why it's happening, but like. if i'm the ceo of tumblr and i see this shit i go "ahh! my users are trans! i should NOT be a transmisogynistic piece of shit!" because i want money and people to use my website
My pet conspiracy theory is that a lot of the "SJWs" who preached revenge against men or shit like that were all feds trying to do full character assassination of the LGBT identity in its entirety. This way, porky has to say that he wants to save the west from the scary rainbow people and that can instill an unshakeable loyalty to him among the lumpens.
It seems more like those types moved to Twitter
