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
 

It's also in my experience the most terminally online leftists are the ones going online complaining about other people not voting instead of like actually doing organizing. I certainly don't see a lot of them outside the internet or when doing things that actually matter instead of putting a piece of paper in a box thinking it changes anything.

Even touching Stonetoss' material ironically fails for the reason that ironic alex jones remixes fail: There is no such thing as bad publicity

Anyways, I wouldn't be doing that to help palestine, or even just own the libs, i'd be doing that to own Americans. This place blows, our people are a bunch of knuckle draggers, and the only thing keeping me from actively wanting what's worst for them since they're so godawful to work with and incapable of cutting the shit is the whole "having to prop up people I hate even worse because they'd do the most damage" factor. Hope this helps

Gay Frog Remix still slaps though.

Volunteering to get behind stonetoss in the cultural human centipede.

Here's the thing though, is Stonetoss even still around? All the memes I see using his comics are years old, does he even make new content anymore? The memes using his material are more popular than his actual original material. It seems the parody has usurped the original from where I'm sitting.

I haven’t really been paying attention but I think his fanboys still dogpile anyone who namedrops him on twitter? Happened to me about a year ago.

yes (i simply looked at the web archive of his website to confirm he has posted comics recently)

Nobody seems to make memes from his newer content
