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

What is it about western Anglo brain that makes you feel so privileged in your ignorance as to be comfortable making these grandiose and absurd statements that could truly only spring from the mind of a simpleton?

Bog standard white supremacist "I'm white, therefore I'm right."

Imo it's the individualist dogma of everyone being entitled to their opinion and the associated implication that everyone's opinion is valid and worth hearing.

I read this, and I'm suddenly realizing that I've never truly felt entitled to my own opinion, but also have never felt like anybody's opinion really matters, and that explains a lot of why I don't get along in society.

I'm a stupid dumbass. Why doesn't everybody else also realize and admit what a fucking idiot they are?

Yeah that’s a sentiment that super common place and Is just absolutely absurd when you think about it critically even a little bit
