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

You keep saying that which is ironically quite a childish position.

"Stop bombing children" "stop bombing children"

completely oblivious to the complexity of the situation

tbf It is a complex issue for them, because they want to be able to openly support genociding brown people, but also want to look like the victim in all this.

The whole "Slava ukraini" thing libs latched onto really taught them that they can position themselves as the victim even when they have.nothing to do with the conflict. They don't live there, they aren't in the army, but somehow, this is still happening to them.

I remember in the early days of the Ukraine proxy war when FB moms were posting "morning routine: wake up, check if zeilinskeyieyuyieiyyy is ok, get coffee"
