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

Isn't it great to have the richest and most powerful and influential people on the planet be really fucking ignorant? joker-amerikkklap

That's not what lawful stupid means either

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

my-hero is the kind of asshole that would go out of his way to belittle and sideline the rest of the party, demand center stage attention at all times, get really mad if his character (that is basically himself with better stats) took damage or had negative consequences, and above all else would abuse and exploit and outright harm NPCs on a whim and then insist he's "chaotic good."

I've read one Kafka book and it's a guy dreading his case and being promptly executed. 10/10 efficient government, real ones can only dream of such efficiency

If you work at a government office and there was a line to see you, someone might have had to wait a while and got mad.
