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

lmao Musk becoming a mutualist or something is going to be great discourse. Can't wait until mainstream news has to teach everybody the difference between egoism and syndicalism when describing the richest man on Earth

Somebody with Twitter blue needs to start spamming him with Stirner memes. It would be so fucking on point for hellworld’s richest man to become obsessed with a fictional person Engels created to troll Marx.

look, even the richest billionaire in existence needs to eat and has to shop at the supermarket of ideology

Creating a new gig work app where “idea-dashers” speed read a book for you and provide a summary of talking points so you can sound smart around the water cooler

this already exists, it's called politics streamers. Shall I use DoorVaush or HasanHub?

Good point, but I’m sure we can financialize it further

theres a joke theory that stirner was a fake person invented by engels to irritate marx, sort of based on the fact that no photographs or drawings exist of him besides random doodles in Engel's notes

I will add to this the random fact that Stirn means forehead in German, and is commonly used in the idiom "die Stirn haben" which translates to "to have the nerve". So Stirner would be an apt name for a lowest common denominator strawman pseudonym.
