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

Libs: "THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO QUESTION THAT THERE'S GENOCIDE IN XINJIANG, AND IF YOU DARE TO BRING UP THE LACK OF EVIDENCE OF ANY SORT OF ABUSE FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS YOU'LL GET BANNED!!!!"

Also libs: "Didn't you know that 15k of the 40k humans murdered in Gaza were actually terrorists? it-is-known Also, lots of civilians die in wars like the one happening in Gaza, it's sad but inevitable"

Editing oit my comment because while yeah, I laughed, suicide baiting isn't on

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee -1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

You really like to throw "go back to reddit" around a lot. It's getting borderline unoriginal

[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 50 points 2 months ago (2 children)

No one is saying it to be clever; they mean it in a very literal and practical way because they see you as belonging on Reddit.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

Life must be hard for these guys who just can't imagine a second reason to say something other than as a performance for updoots

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

👍 Thanks GarbageShoot

[–] Sagittarii@lemm.ee 33 points 2 months ago (1 children)

First time I'm saying that to a non-LW user.

You get that alot ig? I can see why.

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"If you want capitalist propaganda you can go back to reddit lol"

Fair that it only happened twice, but weird that it happened twice

[–] Sagittarii@lemm.ee 40 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I can really see why you get that alot

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Because I'm a smartass to people who go out of their way to try and insult me? Yeah... I'm the problem

[–] Tomorrow_Farewell@hexbear.net 38 points 2 months ago (1 children)

To be a smartass, one would have to be at least a little bit smart. You don't satisfy that criterion.

[–] RomCom1989@hexbear.net 37 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They are an ass though,you have to give them that

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Even if did, I'd have to pay my respects to the master

You turn it into an artform,my friend

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Lol. This has devolved into "No, you". I'm out

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

("Now that you're putting in as much effort as I am")

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

*they would then go on to post 24 more comments within an hour of declaring they were out

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago
[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Yes we all do because youre continuously saying stuoid shit that's only clever to people on reddit who post the same 4 comments like a fucking poorly programmed npc.

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Because I'm a smartass

Well that's definitely true

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 23 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

You're welcome jackass

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You really like to throw "go back to reddit" around a lot. It's getting borderline unoriginal

Yeah cuz this is so goddamn original

Let's do an experiment. Russia had no business attacking Ukraine

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Never said it was original. Good effort though

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 34 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Little weird to criticize others for unoriginality when you lack it so much yourself

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Lol. Guess I can get a little hypocritical myself sometimes. Isn't it weird how that works?

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 37 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's not weird at all, you're a liberal, nobody expected you not to be a hypocrite, but we still have contempt for you for it

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Assumption is the word of the day I guess

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You've pretty much confirmed all of ours

[–] EABOD25@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Says you, but at the end of the day, life goes on

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 27 points 2 months ago

You're just posting for the sake of it now

[–] Aquilae@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] heggs_bayer@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Bruh had to think of a thought terminating cliche to end on and settled on that.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

4 dozen people telling you how fucking stupid you are

"Well, guess we'll just have to agree to disagree shits pants"
