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

one of the corporations in this image, Exxon, is partially responsible for various genocides in the middle east and the American war in Iraq

another one of the pictured corporations, Sunoco, is owned by Energy Transfer. That's the company that owns the Dakota Access Pipeline. In 2016, police gave over 300 protestors hypothermia by spraying them with water hoses in sub-freezing temperatures.

Another depicted company is Shell, and they're Dutch so do I really need to say more

Shell is primarily British. ukkk which I think is probably worse on balance than the Netherlands!

Don't look up what the Netherlands did in Indonesia

I said “on balance” compared to the ukkk. I’m by no means giving the Dutch a pass.

All that pain, suffering and death... for this...

At least the pharaohs of old used to make something beautiful out of the suffering of those they exploited.

And they are all partially owned by blackrock 😂
