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
Just to be clear, as somebody in the same general age cohort: that's a pretty high fucking bar. See: Lebanon, Panama, Iraq, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Afghanistan, Iraq 2: Daddy Issues Boogaloo, Yemen, I'm missing somewhere in the ballpark of a hundred (not an exaggeration) evil things America has done in my lifetime. Some shit in Sierra Leone? Definitely some fucking around in Iran. The evil shit piles up so high it's hard to keep track.
Libya, Serbia...
Plus the domestic deathtolls due to poverty (homelessness, unaffordable health/dental care, malnutrition)
Dunno if throwing ukrainians into a meat grinder also counts
I'd definitely count it
