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 consumption is the point. They just want candy not a meal. They want fucking marvelslop not Cinema.

Inb4 let people enjoy things, the mindset on display is a perfect member of capitalist society. A mindless consumption machine.

Movie nerds when someone says their favorite film is "The Avengers" and not a 7 hour silent Bulgarian film with 0 discernable plot or characters

Edit: marvek is slop

Tarkovsky vs American cinema is a really good way to show the hollowness of culture under capitalism.

A movie with no discernable characters would at least be kind of interesting if it was still live-action

movie nerds when someone likes something shitty that has had billions of dollars poured into making it as accessible as possible instead of spending hours of their free time finding something they like more

most people aren’t like us, they don’t have the sheer neurodivergency required to be based and like cool things

if somebody's favorite movie is the avengers they're a child
