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

As a different midwesterner, you can trust me, but no one else

Depends. Are you Wisconsan? Can't trust Wisconsans. Or Iowans. Or Indianans, Ohioans, Michiganders, or Illinoisans

[–] Smeagolicious@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

you can probably trust like a small percentage of Michiganders, mostly ones from the cool part of the state (the SE). Yoopers are weird isolated hunter/snowmobile grillpillers (and Finnish) and SW, central, and northern LP are usually extremely cringe evangelicals in my experience.
