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

The HEC will be producing works of cultural commentary to reconcile opposing sides, in conjunction with hosting salon-style spaces for people to talk about important issues and difficult ideas while resisting their reflexive reduction to existing ideological oppositions. We also seek to create new forms of dialectical mediation between opposing viewpoints in Western society, and point the way to solutions that transcend reduction and polarization produced by the status quo. As a women-led initiative, the HEC seeks to prioritize women’s voices in critiquing stereotyped political logic from a socially grounded perspective.

I cant understand any of her philosphic ramblings. However the live show was outstanding, I love most of their album art and some of their songs are beautiful. 'god of love' is one of my favorite tracks of all time.

"Harmonia", "Glory Bronze" and "True Will" have been my favorites. I should revisit The Ark Work and HÆLL or whatever Liturgy did after Aesthetica, they didn't really stick with me once she started incorporating more electronic stuff and for lack of a better term 'mumble rap' stuff with glitchy choir/pipe organ shit, but maybe there's something there and it'll click upon a revisit.

It's mostly glitchy choir pipe organ shit tbh but also at least one of the recent albums has an orchestra as well. Origin of the alimonies is worth a listen.

Thanks rat-salute-2

I'll give it another shot and see if I come out on the other side transcendental kabbalah gnostic-pilled or whatever

For anyone that kinda likes Liturgy, I'd recommend Wolves in the Throne Room, Krallice, Ash Borer and Panopticon. I'd plug Vildhjarta too even though they're much more post-Meshuggah proggy death metal/djent milleu than weird black metal, but they scratch the same itch to me that some of Liturgy's hypnotic and overlaying rhythm parts accomplish but with super low chunky baritone guitar riffs instead of layered tremolo picked black metal leads.

Thanks for the recommendations!
