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

A family member of mine had to put their dog dow recently due to worsening health rendering the dog unable to move, so I'm kinda in a bit more sensitive state for this sorta thing right now but...
The idea this healthy dog is gonna be killed or spend the rest of its (significantly shortened) life in serious pain, all to install a useless lump of machinery into it's skull, is making me feel worse than it typically would right now.
I'm gonna go
for tonight, give my dog a pat on the head, and then desperately try to forget I ever read this.
I think that's a good idea. I think it's time I do the same.
Take care of yourself, friend...
