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 a renowned leader helping millions of people coordinate in the fight for justice and a murdering pirate who was dragged home in chains by his own sponsors to answer for his crimes against people barely considered human and died a penniless, shunned pariah are the same thing. Good and bad things are the same you idiot, you buffoon! I am matt walsh and i am very smart.

This is incredibly dumb dumb smooth brain thinking bc Jefferson was recognized as a hypocritical blowhard by his own contemporaries, and is as personally resonsible for slavery, the civil war, and the brutality of American domestic history as any person can be. Colombus was considered a monster by his own sponsors and was criminally punished by the Spanish crown for his crimes in the Carribean.

Dr. King cheated on his wife.

Conflating these things is just incredible

Matt Walsh is the most vile of all the right-wing talking heads. That guy would 100% commit a Holocaust if he got the opportunity.
