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

In the same time they're claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.

I wouldn't make a judgement like that about her. I think her only mistake is either her spacing or inadequate head movement. There are times where that counter-punch pays for your Ferrari. One stand out example in which spacing makes the difference is Connor McGregor (up and comer) for UFC gold backing up against Jose Aldo (established and dominating) and KOing him with a counterpunch[1]. Then there's Sean O'Malley for UFC gold backing up against Aljamain Sterling [4]. Israel Adesanya has moments in UFC title fights where he comes out victorious from a counterpunch that looks a lot more like what she was going for[2][3].

She's a cop, so she's probably expected to outnumber her opponent six to one and for them to be handcuffed face down on the pavement.
