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

The internet funny money proposal...
I won't dispute that the black community has some reasons to distrust banks, but it says a lot that the prescription for addressing systemic racism in banking is to regulate scam tokens
I'm not even sure if this is a call for regulation or just a vague encouragement to put money in a highly volatile planet-burning dubious investment that arguably has a more white and pasty ruling class bigots dominating it.
excuse me sir but Spike Lee told me that the Digital Rebellion is Here!!
Oh, takes me back to those crypto clowns that made accounts on Hexbear just to tell us all that we're ignorant and against the real revolution if we don't buy into the internet funny money.
The only way to beat Wall Street's casino is to buy chips in the new bazinga casino (also owned by Wall Street!).
"We want an alternative to the traditional industry with its captured regulations that help the rich and hurt people like us."
"We hear you and we're here to help. We propose folding alternative markets into the traditional industries so than can be held to the standards of existing regulations."
I think the campaign has a profound - and somewhat comedic - misunderstanding of the entire situation.
