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

It [the name Turtle Island] sounds so cute. It makes me want to live here even more, if 130 years of relative safety for my family weren't a good enough reason.

How fucking absolutely ghoulish do you have to be to say some shit like this. You live in relative wealth and safety BECAUSE your ancestors and the rest of the colonial establishment committed atrocities against the indigenous peoples of America, stole their land, and continue to erase them even as they live today.

Imagine knowing that today tribal land is some of the most disadvantaged areas of this country, with poor access to healthcare, education, aid, etc. and the absolute extreme hardship their ancestors went through and then saying this shit being a privileged cracker ass mf. Absolute genocidal maniacs.
