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

some places in europe still throw bananas at black players in football matches, but okay
Brazilian player Vinicius Jr. gets racially abused every time he plays outside of Real Madrid stadium. Like every fucking time people either make monkey noises or just say the N word for him to hear. It's insane.
Not surprising considering the head of the spanish football federation is an outspoken VOX supporter, they refuse to even try to adress this issue. In fact, every time something happens with Vinicius, former, in activity players or members of the federation would come out and speak about it but they always end up making it worse. They make racist comments while trying to downplay racism at the same time. It takes effort to be this bad.
Happened in rugby recently too, which is a shame, not just by a fan, but a teammate:
"Benetton Rugby prop Ivan Nemer has been suspended until June 30 after giving a rotten banana to team-mate Cherif Traore as a Christmas present. The Italian Rugby Federation confirmed the suspension following an investigation into the incident during a private lunch organised by the club's players on December 20"
i would have killed someone with my bare hands
you're the racist for thinking that it's racist duh
Mm, yes. If anyone needs to be defended here in this discussion about disgusting racism, it's Europeans.
Youre right. I take it back.
i wasn't trying to imply that. i'm european and i've never left the continent, so i have no i idea if they do it elsewhere, i only know that some people do it here
