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

Modern cruise liners are already significantly larger than the Titanic to was when it launched.

Why not just buy one from Royal Caribbean or something?

Titanic was an ocean liner and had a different vibe than cruise ships. The primary focus was to get people across the ocean, not partying with like a hundred thousand people crammed aboard.

Given the deteriorating state of the airline industry…

The Airplane industry has had multiple titanic level of disasters which led to massive progress in safety and regulations. Then the neoliberals said that the line must go up.
