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

In India, your servant cleans your house, your servant drives you around, your servant cooks food for you, your servant ties your shoes... community 🥰

I can't think of one other person who doesn't appreciate these luxuries! Wait, what do you mean "proles are people"?? porky-scared

Not too different from Guatemala either. Seems to be a running theme in countries experiencing colonialism.

Formerly colonised countries do seem to have their cultural and moral norms shaped heavily by colonialism and the class society it has left in its wake. There is a minority but signficant stratum of middle class Uncle/Auntie Toms that revel in inflicting upon the majority slightly softened forms of colonial servitude.
