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

Bonus genocide apologia from the comments:

To radlibs, supporting genocide is “well-reasoned logic”. You live in a horror story. Every person you walk past on the street could be a depraved ghoul who thinks torturing and murdering children is “well-reasoned logic”. Every person you walk past on the street could be a depraved ghoul who looks at the NSFL photos coming out of Gaza and calls that ”well-reasoned logic”. Just think about that for a minute. Just think about how many people you pass every day, people who can hold the door open for you, who can smile at you, who can line up at the coffee shop while browsing cute pictures of cats online, all while also happening to be depraved genocide supporters. Just think about how happy it makes them to support genocide. So incredibly happy yet so incredibly banal that the pleasure they derive from genocide becomes a fixer-upper like their morning cup of coffee. Tell me that isn’t a horror story.

Lesser-evilism keeps proving itself to be one of the greatest evils.
