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

Yes, they really made a rock musical about Andrew Jackson

If I recall, it's pretty critical of Jackson, it kind of brings the audience along with him and then shows he's a monster and the audience, like the USA, are culpable for his actions. On the other hand it really doubles down on "populism is bad mmmkay".

I mean if it’s called Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson I don’t think it’s meant to portray him in a positive light. This is like an edgy teens attempt to parody Hamilton, but this was made first.

If this wasn't enough, someone also made an Abu Ghraib musical...

this thread: chapos who can't handle that art is sometimes made on a stage so they try to denounce an entire activity as liberal like a AM radio host ranting about video games

Gotta agree with you there, comrade.

Remember nuance, people.
