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

It's genuinely bizarre how much the pig poo pic riles these people up, honesty I always thought it was one of our novice level memes, but these dipshits are actually pressed over it lmao wtf

[–] Freeanotherday@hexbear.net 57 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It started off as a mid and low effort bit at best.. til we started seeing the reactions it got.... every time.

Exactly. It's only used because it works

okay, so, here's my hottest take...

I feel bad seeing ppb because he looks that way because of hormones/animal farming

Lib: "lefties call everybody that disagrees with them a fascist"

Lib, analyzing PPB: "this image is fascist, i will not elaborate" lenin-sure

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 46 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Then they get 5 replies, answering all of them with some Russiagate rant, then their inbox blows up with 50 replies, which they reliably increase to 500 replies by answering every single one of them with a passive-aggressive post about how we're all mentally ill wumaos from a potato wodka country because we have pronouns other than he/him

Remember the Hexbear user who argued ppb is ableist because they had IBS?

[–] SerLava@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago

That pig doesn't even have IBS, clearly

Sure they are!

I am willing to concede to liberals the point that Fascism is when you poop on your own balls. I will compromise with them if they concede that Ukrainian Azov militias are a bunch of white nationalist freaks.

I am willing to make concessions on my end of the table if they are willing to meet me in the middle on this salient point.

Hand to God, I do not understand any of the context in this post. From the comments, ppb seems to mean "pig pooping on balls" but what does any of this have to do with fascism? Why do people post it? Who is hexbear?

Also

Why do some people not like the pig pooping on his balls?

Edit: oh hexbear is this instance. duh.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 36 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

Pig poop balls has been a longstanding response by former /r/chapotraphouse users. It was common on reddit before the subreddit was banned, and it carried over to here.

It's basically just a response that the dirtbag left decided to use whenever a reactionary was around. It taught people to stop bothering to "debate" them because they're not doing so in good-faith so there's no point wasting time. Mocking them works better.

This is the original pigpoopballs:

Hexbear is a leftist instance that was the successor to the chapotraphouse subreddit after it got banned. PPB is an image of a pig with gigantic balls that has pooped on its own balls. This image is generally posted as a way of saying that whoever you're talking to is an asshole not worthy of a real response.

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

but what does any of this have to do with fascism

they're just using the word to mean "bad". there's no other way to make sense of that statement.

[–] mustardman@hexbear.net 42 points 1 year ago (19 children)

Didn't ppb start in the old sub? How would that be a fascist dogwhistle?

[–] asparagus9001@hexbear.net 52 points 1 year ago (2 children)

yo, listen

Why are they so fucking soft? Navigating the world and falling into shambles by being trolled with png of poopy pig balls must be pretty fucking tough.

If any of you libs visiting need someone to talk to. You can DM me. I don't know if I can help you. But, good god, hope someone can.

something tells me the aggressively lib internet understander named "demographics" is going to have some neomalthusian / Great Replacement adjacent take.

I gotta know how PPB has fascist roots!? I need to know! And it better be more that "fascism is when you're rude to me"

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

i've never seen so much concern trolling as i have since we federated. it's like a lemmy dickhead's bread and butter.

[–] Twink@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago (5 children)

PPB is homophobic because you force me to look at balls made unsexy through poop (no shame to scat comrades) and animal association. :(

ok so I went looking for the roots of ppb and found a fucking buzzfeed article

[–] mar_k@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago (3 children)
[–] mar_k@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Also, PIGPOOPBALLS is apparently jacked?

Swine veterinarian Dr. Larry Rueff, who has not treated this pig, says:

"The pig is healthy. He is extremely lean (little fat) and heavily muscled. The fact that he is tilted a little to his left makes it look like his ribs are showing when actually it is just his skin rolled together.

He has just had a bowel movement and because he has large testicles it had a little difficulty falling to the ground. That would have worked it's self out in a few minutes. He is rather well developed. In fact the sows (females) would consider him quite healthy!

[–] biden@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Lol the person who wrote this article emailed pig poop balls to a swine vet to ask about the health of the pig? I changed my mind, buzzfeed is true investigative journalism

[–] Comp4@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

"In fact the sows (females) would consider him quite healthy!" Our pig got game
