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

illegal to be white nationalist

Imagine being upset about this

Imagine thinking "it's illegal" or even frowned upon to be a white nationalist lmao

This asschunk probably lives in the US, where being a 'polite' white nationalist is perfectly acceptable (if not encouraged) damn near everywhere

White nationalists are usually pretty immature so you can see that this comes from a schoolyard bullying tactic.

If you're the popular kid, just try fake tears and everyone will rush to your aid against the nerd who finally stood up to you (called you a jerk). Even teachers who get in on high school politics. I had one bully where his whole thing was "ironic homosexuality" where he would ironically flirt just to fuck with people. I called him a slur I deeply regret saying and then he fake whined that I was bullying him with this shit-eating grin on his face. Admittedly, I did get a much needed talk from the principal on why that slur was bad. However, it was also done in the context of 'two wrongs don't make a right' as if they didn't care that I was being bullied nor did they really want to hear my side of the story. Hell, why even get his side of the story at all?
