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

under historical idealism it's easy. the US stopped doing all that stuff right after the most recent blood-soaked example you can come up with of the US doing that stuff, because America is so good and enlightened.

NAFO in "reasonable people"

Noam Chomsky on the "lunatic fringe"

This has to be a bit.

Communists are being equated to Nazis in the image. This is obviously America-brained enlightened centrism-flavored Nazi

toxic towards liberals

Oh Jesus, those unhinged lefties went so far as to say bad things about liberals! Prepare my fainting chair!

im actually surprised they didn't lump liberals in with "leftists"
