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

Most of the book can be skipped truthfully. There's about 80 chapters of whale facts and the first of those starts with "I know all there is to know about whales, so let me set the record straight: whales are fish" and then he goes on to list things which whales are larger than.
He also stops the narrative dead in its tracks to go into an essay about the symbolic power of the color white, in case you, the reader, didn't get it.
It's nice to have a story that isn't full of all the symbolism or metaphors. Just a guy trying to catch a whale
I mean I guess it doesn't count as subtext if the author is going to the trouble to spell out what he means
Only cowards use subtext!
I know all the ways to cook whale.
Gumbo whale
Fried whale
Coconut whale…
Now imagine they didn't have a time skip fast forwarding thru all the ways to cook shrimp, but just had 80 chapters of ways to cook shrimp. And the first of those chapters being demonstrably wrong.
