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

People of colonial complexion apparently have a different definition of what is "rude". In any Latin American country I know, for example, "rude" is doing whatever you want in other people's homes. What to expect from a culture that normalizes staying in bed with shoes on. And if you're supposed to act like you're at home wherever you are, why leave your house?

it's the individualization of the mindset of colonialism. so at least they're being consistent here.

Well you see, the cumskins are correct, which is why they had to go all over the planet to tell brown people how wrong and barbaric their version of hospitality is. If white people's customs aren't objectively correct, how come all the other cultures are inferior?

To be real I thought the expectation was always "someone else's house, their rules" and this article is alarming. Despite being in kkkanada I was raised to obey the rules of whoever's house I am at, it is their space.

What else to expect from settler ''culture''. For them it's about doing whatever they want at someone else's house and expense. Like huf said, at least it's consistent.
