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

Bones everywhere - Christianity with necromancer aesthetics

I'm Ethiopian Orthodox and can confirm. The best iconography, although there is more fasting during holidays than even Islam and can't eat pork.

Or OTO, if you just like the ceremony and not the religion, lol.

The key aspect of the God Emperor they enjoy is that he is dead and they can project whatever belief they want on him without being contradicted.

Coincidentally, this is also why they like Evangelical Christianity so much.

They also conveniently ignore the whole bit about the Emperor forcing state atheism on his Imperium.

Well yes, that's when he had opinions and was therefore Not Based because he was telling them what to do.
