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

Unironically this. The boomers spent their early adulthood surrounded by the counter-culture of the 60s and 70s but never felt included and didn’t really get it. They thought the angst was against the vague spectre of authoritarianism, which to them was simply the Democrats and their Big Government raising taxes, or something. They missed the anticapitalist part. So they thought they understood the revolutionary left as a superficial anarchism, a fight against authority in general, and not a historical fight against capitalist authority in particular. So when they learn that these bands are anticapitalist, they felt betrayed (by their own ignorance).
