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 bought a ZYBERTRUKKK because I care about the environment" excuses have never sounded more hollow.

I don't think it was ever about protecting the environment with the electric cars, more about owning the libs via king bazinga's racism.

I contend that early on before my-hero got particularly scratched, there were plenty of libbing-out (and I lived near so many of them) wanted a performative gesture of their own "progressiveness," like what they already did by shopping at Whole Foods, and they wanted to (direct quote from offline person here) "save the planet and look cool while doing it." fellow-kids

"save the planet and look cool while doing it."
