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

"Muh Soviet in a supermarket" story in 2023? My comment was also about McDonald's in the USSR, so they're feeling super exceptionalist over fast food slop.

Link You can't see this through Hexbear because they were banned for racism, war crime apologism and ableism chefs-kiss

this is such classic cold war copium

ppl are still making tiktoks trying to grift with it, e.g. here's an alleged gusano going into an american walmart for the first time and being overwhelmed because "there are no eggs in cuba"

He was overwhelmed because he remembered Castro took away his grandpa's egg monopoly and that's why, to this day, there are no eggs in Cuba.

Curiously there are no videos about homeless people, shouldn't it be overwhelming to him that there are so many people living on the street in such an abundant and wealthy country? These are obvious grifts.

Unironically becoming more authoritarian every time I see another right wing person
