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

Helping people by utilizing the most highly funded military in the world is weakening it. We can't do good things with those resources. How else will we project our might wherever we want?

I remember these liberals used to make the excuse that the US Navy also does humanitarian work, in particular disaster relief. Wonder what happened to that? Guess it's no coincidence they've got 2 hospital ships and 11 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers

imagine the good that could be done if all the war criminals on those 11 aircraft carriers died and then cuban doctors took them over
