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 think they might be afraid to get the chuds riled up too soon, because they will jump straight to misogyny and racism. The GOP's biggest weak spots right now are women pissed off over losing civil rights because of Trumps judges, and also a fear that the minority voters the GOP has been picking up will be turned off and go straight back to the Democrats.

Chuds putting their foot in their mouths and turning off voters with weird misogyny and racism is going to do more to get Harris elected than any campaigning she does.

(Or maybe a Trump landslide, I can't figure out the electorate)
