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

@[email protected] Explain yourself.

You have been brought before the Hexbear tribunal.

@[email protected] shovv thyself before yourself and beg mercy before the magistrate of the shire in which ye hath posted such liberal blasphemy! And perhaps thou shalt be served a punishment more merciful than that befitting such a poster as thyself. Allovv yourself to be judged and repent before thy magistrate and community before thy inevitable reckoning before God so ye might be shown such mercy in your final judgment, despite thy vvorth. And live knowing that thou art based I'm thy nature an entirely unvvorthy of gods love! -the VVitchfinder General of Hexxbear

I think that what @[email protected] said above is actually what's going on here, and this bigboig clown doesn't understand that the meme phrase "least x y" is always meant sarcastically. They really are saying "wow look, a hexbear that doesn't argue about everything." They're still a dumbass and they're still thinking they're cleverly dunking on hexbear, but they are not saying "this user is extremely contrarian even for a hexbear." They don't understand the idiom they're using.

It just doesn't make any sense otherwise.
