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

Find me a well paid white collar worker who knows how to hang a shelf frame or line up wooden trim. Meanwhile Joe schmo who works construction can spot framing errors in seconds. We got all kinds of jobs. We got all kinds of people. I suck at math but I can rebuild a cabinet if you toss me a hammer and some nails. People are smart in different areas and that's a good thing. I don't want to know everything. Shit it's why I am a leftist. I embrace the plurality of people. The politics followed after that. I can't do it alone. Sometimes I need to abdicate a little authority because I don't know how to do a root canal. Oh, here's a person that does. Called a dentist.
"He's dumb for working at gamestop" he's making money, he's getting fed and housed, maybe he likes games too. Knows all the cheat codes and shit. I swear to God the people that talk big about "intelligence" are some supremely stupid motherfuckers. They might be smart in one area but they aren't a fucking savant. And that's okay! But it isn't a pedestal to stand upon and judge from.
The best part about white collar workers is how easily tradies are able to rip them off. Know a lot a of mechanics that see those types as an easy meal ticket.
"Your interociter is broken. Gotta take the whole engine apart." Good on them. Capitalism forces us to play a little rough sometimes. Fair game in my book.
I never Metalunan I didn't like.
