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

Thanks man, that cleared it up. I agree that both wings in the US are right, it's just the way the country is I guess. The Democrats would be considered extreme right in most of western Europe.
Note that all European countries are still liberal and thus Hexbear users dislike them. This is before getting into the history of colonialism and imperialism which continues to this day.
When we applaud Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger for military coups that overthrow colonial-supported leaders, it's because those coups are popular among their people and take direct anti-colonial action, even if they're not socialist revolutions like we'd prefer.
