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

MODERATORS
Russell Brand, Zizek, Vaush, Orwell, Nathan J Robinson, the list goes eternally of almost-left cringelord creeps
Notice more how they're western leftists...
It's so hard to find the Parentis in the rough
I mean, no shit, Sherlock.
If you're born and bred in a Western liberal country, which benefits from historical colonialism and current trade exploitation ('unequal exchange'), you will act according to the hegemony's rules, and benefit from its spoils...
Specifically Anglo-Western. It wouldn't be hard to find German or Swedish libs that would gladly join in too.
Zizek is Slovenian.
What did Nathan J Robinson do? I remember him having some of the best write-ups debunking Peterson.
if i remember correctly he fired every that worked for him when they tried to unionize and I think had a bunch of other issues. He's also a total radlib on foreign policy
It wasn't that they tried to unionize, it was that they wanted to convert Current Affairs to a worker owned co-op. I'll still maintain that his writing was generally good, and the people he employed were excellent, but he was a rich kid who couldn't give up control of what he saw as "his" project. It's not even about money since I'm pretty sure the magazine lost money the entire time it was in print.
Homie spent a lot of money on clothes too
