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
Even if this were true, never do they ask where habits are formed and why someone has “rich person habits” in the first place. Could it be because they were raised since a young age with ample nutrition, adequate healthcare, private education and lots of family business connections?
Likewise, aren’t the “poor person habits” formed out of a childhood of desperation, sickness, hunger, poor education and no economic mobility?
Shouldn’t the goal be to have everyone on Earth have the “rich person” childhood so that everyone can have good habits? Like even by their own logic they should support socialism so that everyone on Earth can have the beneficial “rich person habits”.
The underlying truth is they don’t think certain people are capable of being smart or successful even with the most privileged upbringing because they are racists. This entire talk of “people of bad habits” is way to sanitize and obfuscate their underlying racist position.
Worse, they think everyone who isn’t poor is poor because they’re just lazy and dumb, they think habits are developed out of some sort of ontological void rather than any upbringing or context
