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

cajun people for a long time were in that grey area of being almost white people but not quite, kind of like Italians and Irish were. In fact one of my friends from high school had his grandparents arrested in the 1950s under segregation laws because the wife was cajun and the husband was italian.
One of my ancestors was a cajun and was also arrested and thrown out of new orleans for violating some kind of segregation ordinance regarding gambling or something.
I guess cajun people are fully considered white now, but that wasn't the case for a while, like a bunch of them got sold into slavery when England took over French Canada
Really? I did not know that, I always thought that it was Creoles that got into such trouble since they were kinda not fitting into the race mold of the time. I guess the English really saw them as a threat then.
