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

every time it's because they haven't actually done any research

I mean seriously get into conversation with them and watch how fast they run out of things to say once you mention anything that happened before 2020... They have severe historical amnesia. That is what it means be a liberal.

It reminds me of the meme about the US civil war:

When you first start studying the civil war: "it was about slavery"

When you have studied it for a year: "actually it was about states rights"

When you have studied it for a long time: "yeah... The states rights to have slaves"
