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

~~Maybe I'm weird~~ OK on reflection I'm definitely a weird dude but "giving a shit about movies" is not something anybody I know does. Even going to movies regularly is like, a thing you do for your kids. I just assume the numbers represent a subset of people who are regular moviegoers or something. Seriously, the last time I saw a movie in a theater was like, 2014 on a date, and prior to that it was '02 or earlier.

Not sure about that, I know a number of people who have gone (including myself), and I don't think most of them are regular moviegoers (I'm certainly not, it's been like like 6 years since the last time I can remember). Admittedly, I wouldn't have gone and would have waited for it to drop for free on the internet if someone hadn't talked about going, but even that isn't something that really happens to me normally
