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

People from some countries probably eat cats, just as some people in China definitely eat dogs, but neither are coming after your pets and there is no real difference between eating cats & dogs and eating pigs/goats/chickens/cows. However if you're already inside the moral event horizon of thinking it's okay to murder some sentient creatures for food and your ill-though-out cultural mores say some of those are off limits (just because okay?) I can see why the only real avenue available to you, if you want to be not racist, is to deny that it happens.

morshupls carnies explaining why mass murdering some sentient creatures is cool and normal but why murdering the ones they keep locked up in their homes is profane and horrifying.
