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

The upcoming "replacements" are the Artemis IV lunar space station and a bunch of proposals from different private companies who all want to be landlords of a future space station. All of these, including Artemis IV are in the "artist interpretation only" CGI picture phase, are attached to projects plagued by delays and problems, and set to launch "no sooner than" the end of 2028. Very likely, none of these will ever get off the ground.
The only project beyond this stage is the private Axiom Station, an upcoming series of modules set to launch to the ISS to allow corporate astronauts to live and work on the ISS, then detach and become a private leave-behind when the ISS deorbits. Fucking grim.
The so-called "best nation on earth", folks
what a shit show
compare this to the Chinese space station, lmao
