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

MODERATORS
I remember when I was living with my dad after I flunked out of college. For awhile he limited my internet time, so I entertained myself with cable on demand services, and my dad had HBO. So one of the shows I watched was Real Time. I usually only got mad at him when he went on antithiest rants, because I was just a vanilla liberal at the time.
My dad is mostly apolitical (he doesnt vote because he wants to avoid jury duty, lol) but his opinions lean conservative when he does have them. So I was surprised when he said he actually liked Bill Mahr when I mentioned he, because he's "not afraid to tell it like it is" or whatever. Like I said, at the time I was surprised, how can my mostly conservative dad like this liberal?
I get it now.
