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

Apparently the British wish to lock me up for daring to suggest something with flavor instead of a cucumber sandwich

Regardless of how it got there, if it's the most eaten food in the country, how is it not their own? Tea and potatoes don't come from Britain either, not were fries or deep frying invented there.

You can make a pastry in a million different ways, but ultimately there's not really any significant difference between any north European pastry dish.

Scotland has as much a rightful claim to deep frying fish as Britain had to India in the first place (absolutely fuck all right).

You're missing the fundamental point here, though; fuck the UK, sink it in to the sea, Doggerland 2 coming summer of '25.
