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

systemic racism is fake, there's just racism

"systemic racism" is just a liberal buzzword that people use in place of "mayos burning down self-sufficient Black towns in the 1900s"

What lol. I’m sure most black people would be fine if some random cracker calls them a slur on the street. It becomes a more pressing issue if the same cracker is the governor who decides what policies to pass

cracker uses the N word on the street
this is rightfully called racism

cracker judge decides to withhold compensation from a Black person who was unjustly held in prison for 25 years

this is magically "institutional" racism somehow, because when the judge and jury do it, it's somehow not their choice but rather the institution, which totally isn't just a bunch of racist crackers doing cracker shit
