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

other treasures i found when spelunking in the disgusting sewer known as """reddit""":

people saying the prop handcuffs were used because "they can't afford anything else" even thought the DPRK has fucking ballistic missiles

people saying the prop handcuffs were used because the citizens were too hungry to break them, or that the armed guards would shoot them if they tried to run, in that case, why the fuck are the handcuffs even there in the first place

people saying that pro dprk people would say kids deserved that, and then go watch a western movie (???)

This is like collective storytelling, people trying to make up the craziest stories they have with no evidence. This is how stuff like the Gulag Archipelago got written isn't it

Yes And, but for enemy propaganda. You are never allowed to de-escalate or tone down anyone else's claim.
