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.

When I tell you these people are OBSESSED

I feel like I'm out of touch for just calling my trans comrades comrades and having it be that simple.

spoilerBut secretly I have a complex about the audience being upset when the athlete that was supposed to win loses. One of my most memorable wins in BJJ was when I was losing against an opponent who had their spouse and child there cheering for them, but then I got them with a wrist lock in the last minute and got to savor the surprise on their faces. More than winning, I enjoy being the reason that my opponent doesn't win. I relish when they try bully tactics on me and they don't work. If someone cried when I punched them in the face and then everybody got butthurt I would find it sweeter than the medal.
