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
The cost of everything went up
Why?
They printed more money
Why?
Government does stuff
Why?
Class warfare, warfare, money laundering, etc.
But entitlements?
Homelessness is a societal choice, private healthcare is the most expensive on earth, food waste, administrative costs of means based testing, policing poverty is expensive, corporations don't pay taxes, contrived tax code, no bid contracts, etc.
Which isn't even mentioning what a farce the premise that shit was good like that without it being more complicated. You know how a hamburger looks in an ad versus when you're actually eating it? It was also people benefitting from war profiteering, exploitation, slavery, and apartheid. Like how do you think the sweet old man baker got the sugar in the first place?
Missing the “whites only” sign on these panels
Famously it was a white woman asking whether the colored folk have a fair shot in life that caused the strong white man to whither away into leaves like in the Avengers movie. Now we all have to navigate a racial jungle where sometimes black people are on TV and women can talk back to you on Twitter.
