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
I’ll mention for any zoomers in the thread that prior to the internet rotting our brains, it was common to have magazine racks in your bathroom or in your living room and just have the most bottom of the barrel schlock in there. I’m not saying there’s never anything of value on Twitter. But Twitter is shit. Similar dynamic. You wanna know where boomers get their humor from? Go read an issue of Readers’ Digest. It’s uncanny how much it reads like a Boomer’s Facebook feed.
Point being that Playboy being kinda sorta legit was more noteworthy in a time where treat addled burgerlanders were buying subscriptions to stuff that was all fluff or all porn.
