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

I welcome theory recommendations on this subject.

After reading your post ten times over it’s hard to come to any understanding of it except “i view npd as ND because the state uses it to justify longer sentencing for minorities.” and “lack of empathy and lack of regard are the same or close enough”, both of which I see as pretty wrong.

The former point is weird and I don’t feel like digging into an understanding of the priors it’s coming from if there is some kind of underpinning you can just link to that’ll clear it up.

The latter really stands out because a child without empathy for ants might smash their nest or smash them, but when told that it’s wrong to hurt or kill the ants a child without regard will continue to do so. They’re not the same thing and autistic people without empathy aren’t acting without regard. Those are two very different kinds of thinking.
