Is this what the dunk tank was before rule 8? Is that typically the kind of content removed under rule 8? Or is it just normal dunk tank content which would be allowed if the number next to the text was higher? Be honest.
Yes, absolutely. Dunk tank content removed under rule 8 (and even before it was formalised) is always some random irrelevant take posted by a nobody with no platform, of which there are literally hundreds of millions on the internet. I think the most notable posting we've ever even had to actually think about whether rule 8 applies is some small time twitch streamer with under 1000 followers who posted something racist on twitter.
The goal of rule 8 is and has always been to limit the absolute dogshit takes that random bluesky accounts nobody's heard of, shitty YouTube commenters, or bad Facebook posts made by some random guy you used to work with 5 years ago.
The intention is to allow for the picking apart of posts made by people with a reasonably large platform or even vague association with the levers of power, without having to wade an endless supply of boring bad takes from nobodies in order to find something worth dunking on.
The rule has been explained multiple times, your disagreement with the rule does not make it unclear.
Why exactly does posting have to be praxis and how is making fun of an Elon Musk tweet praxis, im begging you to explain this
Posting isn't praxis, nor does it need to be. You can quit JAQing off and "begging for an explanation" now.
It's pretty clear at this point that no amount of explanation is going to be sufficient for you given the way you've continued to antagonize both moderators and everyone else who has tried to clarify the situation to you in this and previous threads.
