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

That's the real indictment. If reddit says you are fucking up well uhh you are fucking up.

Except for their am I an asshole subreddit. That place excuses so much asshole behaviour. I blocked it years ago, and every time I check on it, it gets worse.

There was one today about a couple that had an anniversary trip planned but their daughter found out and wanted to come.

The parents didn't want her to but decided to invite her anyway rather than just tell her no.

Then instead of communicating they changed plans last minute, ditched their daughter (who it was really clear they didn't like from their post) and went on their ideal vacation by themselves without her.

Everybody agreed the parents didn't do anything wrong.

There was one I saw about a married childfree couple, and one of them ended up in an unfortunate situation where they either had to adopt their nieces and nephews, or surrender them to the foster care system. They were leaning towards adoption. The other partner filed for divorce because they didn't want to live with children. Reddit unanimously agreed that the person filing for divorce did nothing wrong...

It's such a horrible subreddit with no understanding of how life works.
