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

Those dead fucking eyes, he isn't even happy in this picture. Just striking an epic pose and tricking himself into believing this feeling of coolness is what being happy is like.
He's the richest man in the world and he spends most of his time trying to get everyone to love him on the internet, with diminishing returns even as he boosts the nazi count on Twitter as much as he can.
It's genuinely makes me sad for him and scared for us. An empty soulless shell walking around trying to fill the void with whatever it can find. What a volatile state of mind to be in.
Narcissists are by definition leaky buckets. Nothing can fill them, not even for long, and that insatiability does more and more damage the more power they get.
