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

Reactionaries wanting to "retvrn" to the "tradition" of the nuclear family... Bro you worship capital, not god
Seriously, even monogamy is a societal construct
These stupid fucks wouldn't know tradition if it bit them in the dick
Reactionaries draw a line in history where they want to return to and call that "tradition". For Americans, it's laughably recent. Japanese fascists at least want to go back to before the nuclear family, but their call to "retvrn" is similarly unserious and is reminiscent of the "Greek"-obsessed statue guys. Ignore all the homosexuality, ignore the paganism, ignore the female emperors... We totally want to retvrn guys it's just that 99% of the past did it wrong, too so we gotta correct that. 🙄
Yeah, they're usually just kind of insinuating their desired order is traditional, papering over any information to the contrary. Weaponized "theme park" history.
