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 don't remember a whole lot of specifics but I read an article someone posted on here looking into AOC's career at Boston University (she interned for Ted Kennedy) and noting that her career as a bartender wasn't particularly long. I think it's mostly speculation but the idea that she picked up some establishment connections during her internship doesn't seem very outre.

I feel like more people should run on platforms that basically say "I can't promise I'll get what we want done, but I'll fuck their shit up any way I can and be your eyes and ears in that cesspit. There will be no second term anyway".
