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

Yea it's super jarring the first time. Mine was at brunch with 4 others and they made fun of me because I had a Xiaomi phone and one said "You must like SpyOS eh?" 💀
You can choose a phone that spies on you for an agency on another continent, an ocean away; or a phone that spies for an agency with direct jurisdiction where you live. :edgeworth-shrug:
i mean, that'd be a snappy reply, but really the spying comes down to the cell towers you're pinging, not the make or model of phone.
I've never understood that shit. So many people I know are paralyzed in fear by the mere idea that China might have access to their data, as if they do anything China could ever care about, or that China could do anything with that data.
No you don't understand, Xi is specifically concerned about my browsing.
Well, both-and.
I use Xiaomi mesh WiFi in my home. It's really good. These libs are crazy

I miss having the disposable cash to frequently eat out on weekends lol.This is homophobic you can't attack brunch like that (I hate brunch)
Cantaloupes are liberalism
Cantaloupes do not deserve such slander
... i don't recall the last time I noticed a cantaloupe. They are kind of a pain to solo before they go bad.
Same. Brunch just hits different.
It's probably the dishes tbh. Weekend lunches at home mean you have to get off your ass and do them or see them until you do.
I cook components for weekday lunches at night, so with them and dinners it's just dishes at the end of the day.
"No no, it's not an Apple"
Ask them if they’ve tried suing the state department for unpaid labor
My reply to this was "I'm a true centrist, I give both sides a crack at my personal info."
I'm very thankful I don't live in a NATO country where this shit seems to be extremely prevalent. Most of our phones are bootlegs to begin with lol
It's not NATO/West, just USA and a tiny bit Canada
Americans straight up talk shit, Canadians I can tell kinda look disappointed/down on me, and Europeans will be like "hell yea I loved my OnePlus/Huawei phone, it was amazing"
