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

Do the people in charge not understand how their own system works?

The more I see the western leadership's blind floundering around, the more I think that they might actually not understand their own system. We're 30 years out from capitalism "winning" and history "ending" so our leadership doesn't need to understand the flaws and issues of the system, because the system is eternal and unchanging.

you dont have to understand the system. nobody does. you just have to vote every four years and the system will self-correct and find the best path.

Their grandfathers knew how the system worked but we're a few generations of failsons too deep now
