oh I do know who Vaush is unfortunately, but I didn’t know what the clown emoji referred to - is that actually him?

He’s a pedo streamer and an unfinished clone of the Amazing Atheist, also a racist who’s spent the last year harassing numerous black content creators on YouTube

It’s because you’re not supposed to even talk about him outside the dunk tank, hence the cryptic emojis - you get hit by a clown with a comically oversized hammer for doing it.

The emoji came about because in the early days this site was full of posts getting mad at Vaush, which led to users complaining that we were just giving him attention and that he’s just some troll and there’s no reason to care about his shit - but every post complaining about there being too many posts about Vaush was yet another post about Vaush. So finally someone came up with a copypasta about hitting people with a “big funny clown hammer” every time they brought him up, and once that became the norm we defeated the infectous mindvirus and only talk about him when he comes up organically.

Throwback

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
