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

so i made the mistake of opening twitter today. one of the first things i saw. even better -- if you visit the person's profile, their bio says "Landlord, Southerner, A10 haver."

bonus points. when called out for their racist tweets, they post this gem calling African Americans obese. https://x.com/NotOkN1/status/1816987866527867059

Apologists of capitalism always use philanthropy as an example of capitalism being a good system but then constantly whine about it going to the "wrong" people.

They also smugly talk about how “communism fails every time it’s tried” but ignore how many African, ME, Asian, LatAm countries are impoverished today, right now, and most are capitalist and beholden to the IMF
