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

Right wing propaganda such as what? Go ahead, we'll all wait. They can NEVER give a concrete answer. It's always 'but Russia' and I haven't seen fuck all about Russia on here in days and days

I think it's probably right wing propaganda like:

  • Biden isn't perfect

  • Russia isn't solely to blame for the Ukraine war

  • there's no evidence from reliable sources for Uighur genocide

Listen sweaty maybe-later-kiddo

There's liberals and conservatives. You hate liberals, therefore you must be a conservative. It's not that hard.

The "right wing propaganda" to them is literally anything that is negative about liberals.

Their conception of "left" is that liberal = as far left as you get. Anything negative about liberals is therefore right wing.

They see "I do not like libs" and go to "this is right wing" in their headspace because they know literally nothing other than democrat vs republican. They don't even understand that those are just two halves of liberalism. If you explained that the fascists in Japan are the liberal party their heads explode.
