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

god damn I can't believe I used to admire this guy. I even have his fucking book on my bookshelf and have read it several times. Oh well into the bin with it

admiring somebody good at computer science

Not sure what else you expected tbh

It was always going to be this, being a pedophile, being an incel, or hating minorities/immigrants

Unlimited genocide on computer touchers!

I was shocked the other day when I was like, "I wonder what Joe Damato's been doing" and discovered he's only been posting about Palestinian liberation for the last year. Like a only-good-gamer moment
