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

Every single southern slave owner should have been put to death

Not only did they enslave millions of people, they started a brutal war to preserve that enslavement, that's genuine radical evil, and it should have been dealt with thru extreme prejudice

And since it wasn't dealt with, the US is now crawling with fascists

Bullets cost money and can’t be reused. Just use a heavy stick (see above).

Should have worked them to death building homes for former slaves but I'm sure they were useless laborers having never actually worked a day in their life.

Every confederate flag today is a testament to that failure to eradicate the source of the evil

Being forced to pay reparations instead of be payed reparations would have been a good start

There were more slavery sympathizers than owners IIRC. They should have also been put to death. Or at the very least, experience the same conditions as former slaves until they produce enough product for reparations.
