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 [email protected]

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

Lizard brain. Basic stuff we’ve all lived with (by living in a society) since kids were old enough to give voice to a parent that it’s not being fair if big sis gets a cookie and I don’t.

“I WANT AN ICE CREAM TOO, MOM!” “Of course, Billy, it’s only fair.”

So this guy wants his seat for free too. Because in his mind it’s only fair. And if that can’t happen he wants the opposite, them paying the same as he did, for the same reason.

Inertia. Habit. History. They all rule the day.
