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

When someone says "Hearts and Minds" you know they're either working for the bad guys, or a twit.

It's interesting that in the decades since that phrase came to be nobody has figured out rhe best way to win hearts and minds of a population is to not murder innocent members of that population.

Right? You should be able to go up to the clerk at the ICC offices and be like "Hey this motherfucker was gonna/did do a genocide" and they'll be like "I am literally just the desk clerk leave before I call security" but then you pull up your phone like "Here's a video of them saying "Win hearts and mines"" and the clerk is like "Oh shit, guilty! Guilty! Immediate death sentence let me just stamp this piece of paper."
