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

MODERATORS
You can't just skip entire words for the sake of an acronym! I'm irrationally angry at this!
The WWE used to have an event called the ARMBAR which was short for Andre Roussimoff Memorial BAttle Royal
nah, complete reddit backronym: it was only ever officially called the "Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal", people just wanted to work it into ARMBAR because of Jericho's list of 1004 holds
I'm pretty sure WWE themselves shortened it to "ARMBAR" several times, but looking for it now you're right, I can't find a place they've done that.
Like it's doubly stupid because it gives up the ghost that the only reason it's being discussed is that the people making this bill have an axe to grind against vegan alternatives, and "promote regular intake of dairy"? For most of the world, that's zero.
I'm tired of hearing sob stories about dairy company owners and how they need "our help" but it's suddenly "handouts are for the weak" when I suggest that maybe we should look into making housing or education or medicine or even food NOT luxury goods.
