The impulse towards human wave tactics and the eschewing of technological advancement is simply inherent to the Atlantic brainpan. It's only natural that when they wish to feel terror they imagine their enemy in jack-booted waves even larger than their own; and when they wish to comfort themselves they imagine their enemy to be foolishly chasing after some pie-in-the-sky wonder weapon. They have never been more flattered than to be called Yamamoto's "Sleeping Giant", a prophecy they gladly fulfilled in churning out 12,731 B-17s; 2,710 Liberty ships; and 49,234 M4 Shermans; mediocrities all in specifications, but operationally effective in massed waves.

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
