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

Yes.

But also, this isn't a real thing happening on any scale greater than literally one person.

This is one of those things that weirdo trans-fixated dumbasses on Twitter probably found one instance of happening and because "immigrant bad! (But not me!) transgender bad! Government spending bad!" to right wingers, it's something to pump forever with no significant pushback from the democrats. Great country. Wow. (now all of that is firmly shared by both pro-capitalist right wing US parties. They used to pretend to care about the first, half-ass acknowledgement of the second, and, well, they've always been against government spending. Since Dipshit Carter anyway)
