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
Even if not, not being given a hard time DESPITE our different races really is a sentence that comes with some baked in assumptions. Maybe hold higher standards here.
Cops are good, one of them didn't harrass me because of my race! This is something to be praised and not just what should be expected as baseline human behavior
Nobody 'happens' to be a cop. You can't become one on accident
wait what do people mean by Assigned Cop at Birth then
He's a white dude and the cop was Italian
🐷 🤌🤌
Most of the cops I’ve interacted with have been nice and friendly. It doesn’t change the fact that if their superiors decided to beat and shoot me, they’ll likely turn the other way and not report anyone because they’re cowards who are afraid of being killed by their own “partners.”
My first thought was, Asian American PMC type who lives in a bougie suburb who got pulled over to be given a friendly notice that his left taillight was out.
"The fact I'm a woman was actually the much bigger problem to him so he didn't really lean into the race part". (I'm making this up)
could be a a bougie poc who lives in a nice suburb. Those cops in my experience seem more bored than anything and are pretty chill compared to urban cops who have a much stronger racist streak. If anything, people in HOA's are worse than their local police.
Fuck HOAs.
The western world is so obsessed with race. Humanity needs to commune with Mother Gaia.
WASP dude, Irish cop.
Some "I'm not racist, I have a black acquaintance" energy.
Even though I was Romulan and he was Klingon, we both laughed over our identical "fuck the Federation" bumper stickers
So this is a problem also because communities are being policed by people who don't have to live among them, but commute in from hours away
