the_dunk_tank
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

The Midwest is like the worst part of America but they have so much sway over the rest of the country it's really fucking annoying.
The other regions of America have their drawbacks but in the MW it's 100% drawbacks. Maybe more precisely, anything "good" you can find there you can find the same or better in another region.
And it's absolutely right to compare them to the hobbits, except in the Midwest they're heavily armed and prone to violence.
Ohio, Indiana, rural Michigan, rural Illinois, Wisconsin, all of it just... terrible.
(The Plains states aren't much better but at least they're emptier.)
You can find a midwest city that's at least alright, but the small towns are absolute living death.
Good of you to leave out Minnesota. Almost had to grab some pitchforks.
I’m from the midwest and if I was absolutely forced to stay here for the rest of my life, Minnesota is the goat. Chicago’s cool too but I’m poor as shit so I can’t live there.
It isn't bad if you like peace & quiet with lots of sky. However, you have to be very self-motivated to avoid a slowly deteriorating mental state because you absolutely will not get any motivation to do anything from the people around you.
The mushrooms here are good
