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

Schools are great on paper, but holy shit is the US educational system due for an overhaul.

The way they're designed has to be subtly to make children grow up:

  1. Hating learning
  2. Used to spending their days on pointless busywork

Even if it was a middle-of-the-road succdem country, the US would kick so much ass if it was willing to invest in anything besides military or subsidizing porky.

Would be nice not to have ADHD but fantasize alot about about growing up in a communist world where:

  1. My attention span isn't being preyed upon and there are no commodities to fetishisize.
  2. Once I learn to read and with some guidence, I am left to work through text books at my own pace. I discover the joy of actually learning through patiently scanning the same paragraph three times some thirty years earlier.
