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

Dawkins is such a fucking dork. At least when he was just a loud atheist, it was funny watching Christians clutch pearls but this "only 2 genders" era of him is just fucking cringe.

If he'd just shut up, he could have been the guy who coined the term "meme" and been remembered as a relatively successful minor celebrity debate-bro.

I think this a lot about of celebs that don't know how to shut up. Like, Rowling could have made Harry Potter, raked in millions and then disapppeared into obscurity instead of becoming Twitter's transphobia poster child.
