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

There are some niches of obvious specialized demand, like the trafficking of people (even unwillingly in some cases!) from the DPRK, but I don't understand why sex trafficking is such a stubborn issue even at the rather large scale it exists in.

Yeah it's something that requires a large study, which I'm sure China is down to tackle, just for whatever reasons there are issues in implementation. It's easy to build a dam, much harder to have perfect information

I do recall in that interview the person was very obviously senile, it must be hard to help someone when they don't remember how they were wronged, just that they were
