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

Wtf does he think modern day Africa is lmao, he thinks we ride lions to school or some shit? That I keep a pet lion in the backyard? That they just roam though the cities like it's an everyday thing?
The only time I've seen a lion here was in a nature reserve, that literally had the word "lion" in it's name lol.
Africa was and is just a place where people run from lions like a constant Scooby-Doo chase
Africa is just one hallway with a lot of doors and people run in and out of them chased by a lion
Africa is a land of contrasting doors
also did he really think being forced to live a life in chains, serving under the whip of a colonial master was the preferable alternative to 'running away from lions?'
Yeah good thing the slavers didn't famously use animals in the hunting and capture of escaped slaves
I'd run from a lion a couple times if it meant no office job. Let alone if I were a chattel slave
Right? This is some PragerU shit lmao
tbt to when i moved to the uk and everyone asked if i rode a lion to school smdh
Africa had large kingdoms when Europeans were still only using Bronze but this guy thinks Africans would still be hunter-gatherers without slavery smh. People are so idiotic but it ultimately comes down to how Africa is positioned within our (UK, USA, probably the other Anglos) education systems. Epistemic exclusion + general racism means that Africa is not taught from an African perspective and is only seen as a backwater plaything of the European powers even when imperialism is taught critically.
