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

I never like dealing with these guys. If the whole "The dumbest outcome is the most likely outcome" thing is true, they'll inevitably end up parasitizing any serious socialist project that emerges in the 'states.
Hey, what if we did socialism, but kept everything that made american culture fucking insufferable and all the attendant problems
Don't worry, there's no possibility of this. This movement is run entirely by grifters and feds who have no interest the very difficult work of actually building organizations. While PYM and
put on the People's Conference for Palestine in Detroit and brought in 3600 organizers on explicitly ML terms, the PatSocs put on a parallel event in Detroit that drew a whopping 60 people.
Not to mention the fact that they can exclusively recruit gullible white boys while the multinational working class is going to real organizations.
Yeah, in terms of realistic outcomes they're just kind of a extension of the LaRouchites and unlikely to gain any serious ground by dint of fundamentally misreading how deep the american conservative's anticommunist bent runs. You cannot get to them in any way if you're calling yourself communists
