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

That particular falsehood has roots in America's history of slavery. From the same racist doctor who decided that slaves fleeing captivity had "drapetomania":
Dr. Samuel Cartright, for instance, wrote that blacks bore a “[racist slur] disease [making them] insensible to pain when subjected to punishment”
I came across this post on Reddit initially and one of the comments accompanying the thread pretty much sums up my thoughts on the matter lmao
Whites:
Whites are likely to request pain medication no matter the circumstance. In White mythology, pain medication is seen as sacred and is used in a ritual process called "getting high"
Willing to admit and prone to exaggerate pain as it elevates their status to show others how much their life sucks
Some Whites will reject medical procedures until traditional witchcraft practices such as "homeopathy" and "chicken noodle soup" are tried first
According to White lore, persons with skin tones darker then uncooked pizza dough are subhuman animals. Whites are likely to reject medical attention from such persons and request a similarly melanin-deficient nurse or doctor to treat them
They may ask for your birthday as they believe your whole-ass personality is determined by it according to their sacred calendar
Will ask for the manager

"We need cultural sensitivity training in med school." One finger on the monkey's paw curls.
No need for a section on Caucasians, everyone who reads that book is already gonna know how they act.
No doubt they consider white people the "default."
Many clients view pain negatively
No shit sherlock
They’re being culturally sensitive in order to be inclusive of all the Cenobite patients.
No info on how white people handle pain? Looks like we'll need to inflict pain on mayos to get data!
The American education system is wild. 
They believe suffering and pain are inevitable
TIL Black = Buddhist
Wtf? "Blessed by a tribal shaman"???? Not that the rest isn't racist, but that's cartoonishly racist.
idk the Jewish one and the "Blacks often report higher pain intensity than other cultures" (counterpoint: black reports of pain are more often ignored or downplayed) seem, like, precision-engineered racist while that Native American one seems more like a low-effort caricature.

What if med school was just a boomer on a mic repeating "what's the deeeal with Native Americans?"
We can't have universal healthcare but we can have universal phrenology in our healthcare

WTF, there are citation dates as late as 2009 in that book, meaning it was written after! This is on the same level of racist as when my brother found a 1940's biology book in a storage closet of our school that discussed
