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

It's the only morally correct thing to do according to Utilitarians.
This looks like a job for Utilitarianism Man! (cw: gore and death references)

On one hand, this comic wasted the opportunity to make him look like Ayn Rand. On the other, if that was Ayn Rand, it would have much more CW.
Those children's gruesome deaths are ~~acceptable~~ necessary sacrifices if they help us get rich people to Elysium sooner, according to Longtermists.
:is-this: effective altruism?
Is this praxis?
