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

It was, but even this is breaking down due to the increasing wealth inequality even within bourgeoisie and the mechanisms that were created to control lower classes' participation in politics like capitalist media, electoral college, anticommunist, pro-status-quo propaganda and similar things that had got a life of their own and are eating even into mechanism of bourgeois self-rule, hindering their effectiveness. Like old realistic ghouls like Kissinger being replaced with complete idiots who have bought into their own propaganda.
With that framing it’s no wonder the US is producing mainstream fascist politicians left and right. The downwardly mobile petit bourgeoisie are some truly volatile fucks.
