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

Has tagline vibes...

[–] jaeme@hexbear.net 45 points 10 months ago (1 children)

the concept of a shonen anime with a good story is, by nature, an oxymoron. a myth, like Bigfoot or people being able to 'visualize' apples in their brains

We need this man on hexbear, never have I seen someone with such posting power.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 27 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm gonna visualize so many fuckin apples

[–] PointAndClique@hexbear.net 25 points 10 months ago (1 children)

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 17 points 10 months ago

I’m gonna rotate them like a cartoon character eating corn on the cob

Am I wrong to think this is extremely funny? I feel like this can't be typed with a straight face...

[–] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 29 points 10 months ago

akkommunism the russians

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 28 points 10 months ago

This dude is a next level troll. Truly amazing posting.

[–] DayOfDoom@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I see Anilist caved and let decimal ratings? Shameful.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Nooo i like decimal ratings. On Trakt i so often look at two movies i rated a 7 and go "these movies are NOT the same amount of good, please let me differntiate".

[–] DayOfDoom@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Every decimal rating you give is a small decimal percentage of your Reviewer's Integrity that erodes away because you can't be confident in your Big 10 rating. I want you to turn in your badge and your log-in info. And I want you out of this precinct. I don't want to see the name Drago McAutism on that desk by Monday.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

NOOOOO

But! But! (First example i noticed on my Trakt list) Pitch Perfects 1 and 2 are both rated 7 for me but the sequel is not as good as the original, but the sequel is also not a 6 :( please i just want to be autistic over minutae.

the overwhelming majority of people who watch this show do so because they like the idea of being emasculated by an imperious woman.

He's not wrong there.

[–] SovietWaveGoddess@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

how is this a bad thing tho

[–] WithoutFurtherBelay@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It’s not, it’s just that it’s an anime so there’s a 50% chance they’re all children

[–] SovietWaveGoddess@hexbear.net 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

this is indeed true

we must purge anime, and it will become glorious

half of my motivation for being a communist is thinking of what eldritch smut people could come up with after the revolution. No profit motive and likely thousands of times more skilled artists and writers with many more tools and material resources. It’s going to be great. Not because I think I need more advanced smut, I just think that kind of weird shit summarizes what’s great about human beings

I don’t care if this is cumbrained, you literally cannot deny this will be the case

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 9 points 10 months ago

More advanced smut post-revolution would by no stretch be a bad thing, however

Also though yes, volcel-judge

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 8 points 10 months ago

It's why Venus in Furs is my third favorite book.

~~Are the images acting up for anyone else? It keeps following the link instead of removing the spoiler.~~

E) AH, nm see it in source

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Did he...photoshop his eyes to look bigger in that pic? Or use a fish eye lens to try and achieve the same effect? Maybe he's just jealous of anime and that's why he's attacking it.

[–] FumpyAer@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Glass lenses can magnify your eyes.

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 10 months ago

Oh yeah, that's probably it. I still like the idea that he's on this anti-anime tirade because he's jealous though.

[–] SoloboiNanook@hexbear.net 8 points 10 months ago

Absurd posting level tbh

[–] sooper_dooper_roofer@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

....is that a photo of Reynhard Sinaga?
