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

even if I’m not financially impacted, I still care if someone steals my package. I think anyone would. It’s a hassle to get the merchant to rectify the situation, and sometimes that isn’t possible if the item was limited or sold out. That doesn’t even get to situations where someone really needs their package timely, like medication.
Looting from big box stores doesn’t bother me, but it’s not as harmless to take things from regular people’s doorsteps even if they might be made whole after arguing with customer support.
The two aren't mutually exclusive. Petty theft is bad, but it's a fraction of wage theft, which is a fraction of the surplus value/rent. This type of media is fucked because it ultimately promotes policies of over-policing and harsher sentences than the more harmful forms of theft.
