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

Probably hope to stop billionaires and nepobabies from wasting resources and maybe confront them with their consumption

yeah i get the sentiment but, obviously this method is futile i just hate seeing poc getting brutalized for no real reason. idk i just think sabotage would be far more effective. its a dessert you know. maybe if they had 5 times more people out there and (in a perfect world) guns the road block would work but yeah literally the only outcome of a crowd this small trying to block the road is them getting arrested at best. call me a doomer ig

There's 75 miles between Nixon, NV and Black Rock and about 80 miles between Eaglevile, CA and Black Rock. That's nearly 150 miles of mostly uninhabited road where one could properly space about 1000 spiky bois over the stretch and cause way more damage and chaos. A group of 3 or 4 people could weld up 1000 caltrops in less than a day for about $150.

Oh yeah for sure, but there's also a question of what you can get away with and what you're comfortable with doing.
