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 other half of the founding fathers who wanted to just do feudalism started a civil war then lost isn't a culture, I'm sorry its just not if your culture dosent have a unified language, geography, religious/cultural and maybe the bare minimum is like 1000 years I don't want to hear about it.

But you know what I'm not even gonna go their as their are problems in defining culture like I just did.. the south dosent have a united BBQ culture let alone a full blown culture so get the fuck out of here. grillman

Both did, it’s just one half wanted Roman style feudalism that hides behind the pretense of designated families competing for limited titles.

I always found the states early goverment, you have the liberal striver types but think the French went to far but then you got straight up Roman style slaver who treat their slaves worse then the romans. In my heart of hearts 💕 I believe the American revolution is what happens then a revolution is entirely made up of opportunistic elements, I dont even think they belive it was gonna last as long as it does.

With all the “new Rome” language part of me thinks you’re right. I’ve seen people talk about it as a bourgeois revolution, so there’s definitely some theory out there that backs up the other point.
