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

Communist Party of America (ACP)

(ACP)

Nice quirky acronym.

Are they making fun of the fact that the communist party of China is almost always abbreviated out of order?

i didn't even notice that at first but they have to be. which is a great bit tbh

Unfortunately, this is just due to machine translation.

The party itself calls itself the "American Communist Party (ACP)"

oh yeah, i know that. i'm saying that the Chinese poster calling them the Communist Party of America would be a funny bit, since americans insist on calling the CCP the Chinese Communist Party
