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

It's a damn shame, because the cast is the only real redeeming feature of that show, they're all absolutely incredible and it's really upsetting to see them have to deal with just terrible writing

You can see Sanderson, for all his flaws, trying to pull the show back on the rails and only occasionally succeeding. And then every reactionary asshole on earth going "they didn't listen to him and made it woke!" Despite him being about as woke as a devout, traditional member of the Latter Day Saints can be

I did find it very funny that they were pissing and shitting themselves over Moraine and Siuan having sex when it's mentioned multiple times throughout the books that they were "pillow friends" while they were novices at the White tower.

Insufferable, the lot of them
