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
This one goes back a long way
My brain just cannot process someone responding to the criticism of "your shithole country has a bad habit of publicly executing black people for fun when they're bored, because they know there will never be any consequences" to "look everybody, more ridiculous Russia propaganda from uncle vlad, haha so crazy. he's probably drunk on tractor vodka again"
Our society is so racist, and racism is so normalized we can't even process it as something that can or should be fixed.
Oh god, now I'm imaging the future where liberals find this and re-write America's long history of lynching black people. They'll call anyone who points it out a Russian bot
I live in the south, white libs already decided to agree they won the war on racism decades ago
Shit I think MLK JR wrote a letter about it before Edgar Hoover started sending him fan mail and brass coated lead boat tail hollowpoint edition lifetime achievement awards
They've already written off any post-Biden winning BLM activity as Russian influence a few times I think. So it wouldn't surprise me.
