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

I mean...isn't this more about culture differences than race?
It's kind of like: "I expected the man to look like those I'd met in Alabama - straw hanging out of his mouth, beer gut, and empty cans rolling around in the back of his truck. Instead he was a soft spoken, slender fellow, with a neat suit and tie to match"
That doesn't really imply what race they are, just what region they're from and what the narrator what expecting based on where they are?
I dunno if I'm seeing the whole picture here though
It's kind of a one-two punch since they may have confused the group with the actual Houthi tribe they're named after? Anyway, "race" can encompass cultures too when they are significant enough, i mean, plenty of European states get racist at each other when they're practically the same genetics
