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

Wait I just started playing (currently at the part where I have to get the signatures in the village for Evrart) and I might be accidentally taking the Ultra path? I kept trying to distance myself from the Union while still doing all the commie lines because I'm pretty sure the Union is essentially a mafia exploiting the dissatisfaction with the Coalition and the revolutionary nostalgia in Martinaise. I wonder if I've just sunk into the armchair though.
Doesn't help that
called me a Social Democrat so I went off on him
Evrart and Joyce are amazingly well written characters. It's important to read between the lines when dealing with them, especially in how they perceive you. You are not yourself, you're a fucking pig in this world and their perspectives match that reality. Of course Evrart treats you poorly, you're a fucking pig and he knows that at any second you can start arresting/murdering union members without consequence. Conversely, of course Joyce treats you well, you're a fucking pig and she knows you're a foot soldier for capital. It's entirely possible that a union leader might want to conceal their actual power level from the fucking pigs.
The Union, while slimy as fuck, is a bit more morally nuanced than that even at the top.
There are many nuanced reasons for
taking his sweet time finding your gun. He is a busy man!
