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

Jail? For what crime? The contract might not hold up, but there's no way you go to jail for signing an agreement with someone with memory loss.
Seems like it'd be hard to prove knowledge and intent, at least, especially since the post describes him as lucid, just with memory problems.
The question is, to what extent do you have to verify someone's cognitive ability before signing a contract with them? Obviously there's a line somewhere but it just seems difficult to me to refute a defense of, "They seemed competent enough to me and I didn't know their medical history."
