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 refuse to interact with anyone who says "coMmuNiSm onlY wOrkS In tHEorY!"

It's the most level-0 anti-communist talking point out there, so it's automatically indicative that anyone who says it isn't educated enough to entertain without wanting to bash your skull in. They want to sound like they have a solid argument against communism without actually knowing anything about it basically. It's how you know they truly fell for the capitalist propaganda bait.

At the most charitable interpretation it still makes that person look like a dipshit. "The stateless, moneyless, classless society envisioned as the highest state of communism has never been achieved, therefore mild social democracy can't work".

Yeah it was my basic idea about communism before I knew anything at all of substance
