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

Since I know we have some comrades in the posting trenches, I figured out a good way of explaining it to them:

This was a pretty popular clip, they might have seen it. Pierce Morgan is treating this communist as an Obama-supporter because he is so brain-rotted that anyone criticizing Trump must have Obama as their sacred cow, completely failing to understand that there is discourse outside of that limited political spectrum. They are doing exactly the same thing with the Dems.

As an aside, the General Discussion thread currently has as its thumbnail a cartoon of a shotgun being leveled at Ayn Rand's head with "Class Consciousness" written on it. Come on, I won't argue against that the site is genuinely full of libs, but that their intentions are communist could not be more ham-fisted.

Are you talking about Lemmygrad? because your comment is a bit confusing

Oh, maybe it was lemmygrad's general discussion, I don't keep close track, but I think what can be said for one instance can usually be said for the other.
