I regret to inform hexbear that Blumenthal has always had an extremely cringe writing style, he’s just got terrible content now instead of focused anti-imperialist stuff.

All the Grayzone guys (even Norton) really can at times sound like the Pepe Silva bit from always Sunny.

lol it’s true. And a decent percentage of the time their unhinged-sounding stuff (not the reactionary shit, just the “they’re out to get us” stuff) is basically accurate, just presented in the least-convincing way possible.

Sometimes you’re paranoid and they are out to get you. This has the unfortunate effect of reinforcing paranoia in other instances.

I feel like there is a time for professional sounding journalism, especially when going up against these types of things. You don’t do yourselves any favors if you sound unhinged. Even their older website gives me weird vibes in its design. Idk what it is.

Create post

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. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

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
