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

Humans are atrocious creatures, Grimes
This isn't the post to argue it, but I actually really like people, we as communists are trying to save humanity at the end of the day
But also obviously this shit is just whitewashing cracker crimes in a white supremacist world order.
"Humans are evil, Humans colonized natives and enslaved Africans, humans also did the holocaust and dropped nukes on other humans.... wait a minute"
Humans are epic.
Exactly, humans are like epic bacon.
I'm with team human cause I am one, but I've got a LOT of sympathy and empathy for animals and well, basically from the start we have been extinction machines, even cavemen being able to throw things a long distance and sweat and whatnot had us clocking out species after species and that's at our least technological level. We are an ecological disaster from the very start and almost every other thing that's alive on the planet would be stoked to see us wiped off the face of the earth. This isn't like human nature is for us all to be greedy little capitalists, but looking at how every other animal has acted on the planet compared to us, and you gotta admit, we're death and destruction incarnate to most things that live on this planet and always have been.
The main counter argument I'd make is that so much of humanity is destroying the environment. You're right though, humans are not inherently atrocious creatures. Commies are for the people
Broke: actual misanthropy
Woke: climate justice and animal liberation
