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

Maybe they should raise the quality of men a little

No hexbear I swear to god I'm not starting another interminable struggle session if the above made you mad go touch grass and hold someone you loves' hands

I think the core of chud dudebro thinking is that they are fine exactly as they are and the entire world must break itself apart to fit their every whim and desire.

The idea that a relationship should begin with a friendship built on mutual trust and respect is anathema to their worldview

They are owed things, they don't think they have to earn anything

They are the main character, and they expect "NPC" helpmeets to cater to senpai's every whim. kombucha-disgust

Ah, but they do want to raise the quality of men.

There's a live one in this thread that'd probably take your post completely seriously and tip his fedora gleefully at you.

I'm sorry that I lowered the quality of men by discarding that label
