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

I'd rather believe in right wing conspiracies because I would at least know that I'd still be smart enough not to fall for Chinese propaganda trying to get both sides of the US to fight each other so they don't focus on the bigger threat.

What’s the bigger threat? Bigger than what? Bigger to who? What the fuck are you talking about?

Also, the "two sides" of the US are communists and Anticommunists. You're on the same team as Biden, Trump, Henry Kissinger, and Hitler.

Seems like a fun group to go drinking with!

so they don't focus on the bigger threat.

It's true, PLA summarily execute over a thousand Americans per year, with that number increasing year by year. Oh, whoops, I meant to say "American cops".

You are our opposing side and our bigger threat than China is
