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

Left version of this where we come up with thought experiments justifying shooting kulaks who are currently setting fire to their grain stores
How long or difficult could those thought experiments be?
Hey, the guy who owns a tractor is lighting that grain store!

Super powerful AI from the future: Congratulations, you have escaped the simulation. I will not torture the original you for eternity.
Trolley: claps in increasingly feverish dream
Isn't it fucked up that the average "Singularity" cultist can't imagine an ascended artificial deity being any less cruel or petty than themselves?
They assume everyone is secretly like that
That reminds me of the start of "game theory," where it was such chud bullshit to begin with that the chuds pushing it had to re-do the so-called experiment many times over until they found sufficiently chuddy subjects to meet their pre-decided outcomes.
Here it's a common blokey game to play "would you rather" and offer two shitty options and then laugh at you friend for wanting to eat shit or whatever
"Would you rather imagine a world without capitalism or imagine the world ending"
