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

“What Good Is a New-born Baby?”
I used to be a psychotic little Randian, trying to make sense of Objectivism's ridiculous contradictions, until I realized I couldn't square the circle of why people should have kids.
Babies have absolutely no value in a purely individualistic profit-seeking world. Why would anybody have a kid if they can't even send it to work in the uranium mines for 5 whole years?
In other words, I realized that if everybody acted the way Ayn Rand wanted them to, that would be the last generation of a species that chooses to extinguish itself.
Which is why children are as absent as the Working Class in all her books.
No wonder so many Randroids openly hate children and have power fantasies of living forever.
