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

As much as America sucks there definitely is plenty of wonderful stuff to see and do here. And tons of wonderful people living under its boot. I try not to be too negative about aspects of the country that aren't inherently bad.

I most want to visit China, though. Lots of European countries too. I think if I were rich as fuck the first thing I'd do is just fly to like the UK or something and then travel over land all the way across Europe in a horrible wavy line, through China, across to Japan, and then back across the Pacific. Maybe stop somewhere along that path and simply never come back if I can (which I probably can because rich people can do anything)

That sounds a lot like what I would do if I had the opportunity. It sucks that a lot of us won't get to see this big ol planet, much less live in a place that people would want to vacation to. I count myself lucky to have been born where I am. The natural beauty is outstanding, and there are little pockets of culture worth sticking around for
