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

In this post, I saw a lot of people coming to Bad Empanada's defense, and felt like they may be uninformed about his actual positions of things, so I felt that this ought to be posted.

Whether or not it's extremely unclear jokes and layers of irony poison, the rhetoric is just pointless at this stage.

I was a big fan of BE in the past, but too much time on Twitter and adopting a 'streamer' personality has completely brainwormed him in recent years; It seems like he cares more about "winning" over other people on the internet instead of presenting any coherent thought. He's made some great videos in the past, but not even his fans seem to know what side he's taking on a given day anymore.

The further away the BadEmpanada posts are from his main channel, the worst his takes are
