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

I wasn't a gifted kid by any stretch of the imagination, but I've definitely encountered people like this in real life as it relates to autism.

Whew! Us scheming neurodivergents sure had it easy amirite?

Good to see this shit gets taken down quickly.

I let my curiosity get the better of me. Not looking at the removed comments next time.

This neurotic keyboard diarrhea is a prime example of a beta who goes online with implicit intentions of externalizing mental trauma derived from their own personal failings, toxic masculinity, and a general lack of critical thinking which comes with being a reactionary cuckservative.

Trash like this who view "the real world" as paradoxically both a just vehicle to punish individuals who do not conform, and a difficult, unfair place to be, would ironically be shot in a more civilized society for such anti-human views.

This is such a wild comment. It combines alpha/beta discourse, psychoanalysis, a single really clear insight, and chapo style violent edge. This comment belongs in a museum or something.

For me it's like, you are "gifted", you do good at school, you know more than your peers, you process information a bit faster and then what? The schooling will catch up with your "gifts" and you will either adapt quickly, slowly, or not at all.

i aced literally any standardized test thrown at me in high school, but get to college and they want you to write two pages? i couldnt complete a single assignment and dropped out.

parents pushed me so hard only seeing the speed i was moving at, when only i could see the brick wall i was speeding towards, and i didnt dare express concerns because it would only land me with more accomodations i didnt need and wouldnt use but would make me feel more alienated from my peers.
