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

Not wanting to have your own kid is one thing (to be clear: a totally reasonable and acceptable thing) but broad anti-natalism is eugenics and it is troubling how pervasive the rhetoric is, even among leftists

but broad anti-natalism is eugenics

no it isn't. rich kids suffer too and it's immoral to force that upon them. treats don't make up for bullying or being assaulted by a priest etc. hell, there's even another angle where raising a kid rich is more likely to make them a sociopathic monster who goes on to harm others and it's probably immoral to create a person who is going to be an Ivy league fratboy.

Is your argument that human life simply isn’t worth living? Cause I’m gonna have to disagree with that one chief

[–] Ligma_Male@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

you don't get to decide for other people whether it is or isn't, and you can't know in advance whether someone will think it's worth the pain and suffering, so it's immoral to force people to live.
