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

I don't know how many people here have actually been to a Cracker Barrel but I was forced to go by a family member once and to this day I remember how racist it felt in there--it was like walking into a cracker miasma.

I didn't notice it myself, but I only went there once and I was exhausted from landscaping for 12+ hours. I'll take you at your word, considering its general fanbase.

What is it? I thought it was a restaurant based on what people say about it, but the picture above says it's an "old country store" (which I can definitely get big cracker vibes from that for sure)

It's a restaurant that usually has some sort of "old west" themed gift/knick-knack store attached to it. Very tacky.

It sounds very American for sure. Does it sell Tex Mex kind of food? (Feel free not to respond if you can't be bothered, I'm only very mildly curious)

No worries lol. They serve... "American food." By which I mean they have a lot of red meat (especially bacon), bland and gross gravy, and the usual fried fare. Pretty sure they'd get scared if you mentioned a seasoning other than salt and pepper around them.

Ugh, sounds gross. I could never get behind bacon at a restaurant, it's one of the easiest things to cook at home, but they charge double the price.
