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

Really funny to see all the MAGA patriots going to bat for the Soviet Union in the replies

That’s only because Trump is doing it. If Biden did it they’ll call him a Stalinist

For sure, hilarious nonetheless

If it ends with some of them seeing through anticommunist propaganda, it would be very funny.

No shot, they are doing it purely out of reflex because Trump said it

It won't. They'll just use this as a "gotcha lib owned with facts and logick" and forget about it in 5 seconds.
