Bonus fun: the original title for this article called the video "stomach-turning", because apparently seeing what is essentially bread being made is icky.

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

I think advanced stage treat defenders like in the link often have a pang of guilty conscience about what they consume and feel compelled to violently stamp it out with over the top performative statements and gestures
whenever they feel that pang.
It's the old Matt Christman bit about zen fascism, basically it's a selective nihilism where they are aware they're bad, but they are too mentally weak to fight against their hedonistic urges, so they fully embrace being saturday morning cartoon villains.
