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

When I see Persona 4 and 5, it now makes more sense. They see themselves as the villain and they're okay with that.

Spy x Family is the only thing I can squint and maybe see where they're coming from. It's about a simulated nuclear family becoming more organic, which I could see appealing to conservatives but not edgy 14 year olds that would see themselves as Adachi. Because even then, while the west are the "good guys", most of the anime has been more about trying to establish peace rather than genocide the east.

Persona 5

The game where you use magic powers to not-the-doohickey not-Shinzo Abe. Very right wing.

If we're just putting things down that we like as an aesthetic, dibs on shovel knight.

Unless I'm being trolled massively, I want to drag these neckbeards out of their mommy's basement and force them to touch grass.

But now that we're on the subject, I claim Sly Cooper as an honorary comrade: he promotes adventure-time against terrorists, and one of them talks almost identically to a far-right internet cool kid, right down to playing dress-up in the legacy of their piece of shit ancestors.
