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

MODERATORS
If people can't biosculpt their bodies to look like literally anything they want and still have to work why are we even having a singularity?
I know we've had plenty of struggle sessions about subjective experience/consciousness/qualia before, and I saw clumsy
versions of the same on the linked thread, but I'd like to set those aside this one time and instead heckle the fact that so many of those singularity cultists want to be immortal nanobot swarms or unstoppable war machines or whatever but are utterly terrified of trans people that currently exist. 
Right? How do you even pretend to reconcile that dissonance?
That's the neat part, they don't.
It truly is baffling to me just how creatively stagnant the thought leaders are of the so-called "Singularity" ideology. Ever see
's lazily compiled pictures of cars rolling down the highway, except on Mars?
They want pre-war Fallout political norms and aesthetics for all eternity.
