    What is “dunking?” Most of their interactions are basically the bird leaf meme, and I don’t know if they consider that dunking.

      It means “brigading”, specifically “brigading by shitpost”, basically “bullying”. They use the term themselves for their own behaviour on communities outside of their own instance here on lemmy, and it is very typical of their authoritarian beliefs.

      Basically means they all say it’s fine because America did XYZ over and over. Or call people liberals until they feel better about themselves.

      You say a thing that pisses them off on any random community.

      They link and @you in their “dunk” community and try to bait you into replying there.

      Or, they just use that post as a rally to get people to come to the thread you were on.

      They then hammer you with “well america is terrible too” and genocide denial and just general shittiness. Essentially trying to one up you any way they can, then congratulating themselves on “dunking” you.
