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

He’s just known for having absolutely no filter and saying completely out of pocket stuff constantly. I don’t think he has the greatest opinions in the first place, like definitely not really that on board with gay people nor very respectful of women, but I’m also convinced half the reason he does it is because of some “any press is good press” attempt to get people to tune in to his radio show. I’m always taken aback when I see him in mainstream media cause of the things he’s said.

He's pretty okay with gay people, he cohosted that Catfish spin off show about Trolls, where he was pretty kind to the two feuding gay trolls. He also hosted a few pretty good interviews with a drag queen and challenged Boosie on his homophobia.

I also liked that he platformed Nina Turner, mainstreamed the lady covering LA sheriff gangs, and got a proper prison abolitionist lawyer to grill Eric Adams and make him squirm.
