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

Having lived in CA and the midwest I can very comfortably say a vast number of Americans are bigots no matter where you live.

Same, in the Midwest even when they frothe and seethe and make threats or yell slurs its weak childish shit vs the worst I've seen in CA. Also never had an potential employer call me back just to go on an unhinged transphobic rant to my face instead of just tell me I was rejected over phone, or instead of interview they tell me "we don't hire people like you here", they just ghost, and I find out through the rumor mill the reason. Supposedly CA has laws to protect trans people naive fools tell me on the internet, never believing shit, not if its verbal.
