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 like Black Templars because they play like Space Wolves lore claims they fight like.

I play Dark Angels because they're canonically as sick of Space Wolves as I am.

Also, one of the few loyalist chapters that have a weakness that both matters and is the direct fault of their own Primarch.

space wolves are ok, they are like the 2nd or 3rd most likely chapter to care about civilians whatsoever, they fought the inquisition to stop them from blowing up a planet once i think. idk about the fans, i imagine the viking theme attracts pigmask-off

Conceptually Space Wolves are okay (beyond, as you say, viking shit being a magnet for Nazis). My problem for them is that they're so poorly written.

If I said something like "the battle between Svane Vulfbad and Harald Deathwolf", most people would be hard pressed to figure out if I'm mocking the Space Wolves or referencing a real canon event.
