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

Although the screenshot is mostly conservatives, a lot of liberals believe this too. But when you point out that Cuba has changed drastically since it’s state homophobia days to including LGBT people in the constitution, they will cry and pick it apart for any reason why it’s not real progress.

Capitalists, but specifically the liberals and conservatives, pretend that their ideologies have always been tolerant. Although it’s a conservative cliche, the democrats were literally the party of slavery and the KKK. Black people, Asian people, Hispanic people, LGBT people, and hell even non Anglo Europeans were treated like subhumans. They want to pretend that communism and non western societies are frozen in time, never to evolve past reactionary sentiment as if the west has.
