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

whenever a guy like this is posted here, I'm always like "Oh yeah, this guy is obviously doing a bit, why are people here falling for satire so blatant?" and then keep reading and it turns out that the person is not, in fact, doing a bit
for every person here who pokes fun at our inability to see when people are being satirical, there's a guy on reddit who not only thinks that the Empire in Star Wars were the good guys. And not even in an edgy way - he literally thinks that the intention of the films was to show that the rebels were bad and the Empire is good
If its parody then it had to have a source
I don't think art should change to accommodate them
