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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

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

"You're all reactionaries"

"Anyone who disagrees with me is reactionary!"

I can't understand why none of us tried to explain 100 years of history and 200 years of theory to them. They seem so reasonable

reactionary /rē-ăk′shə-nĕr″ē/ adjective Characterized by reaction, especially opposition to progress or liberalism; extremely conservative.

they weren't even using it right if I understand correctly

You say you aren't a reactionary, yet you reacted to something I said very-intelligent

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Every time a doctor hits a knee with a plexor a new reactionary is born. Imagine reacting to physical stimuli.

Yeah plenty of people who dont understand politics dont understand this word. I shared a discord with someone who's media opinions always echoed that of reactionairy youtube ragebaiters, and told him so, but he tried to tell me "normal people" would see me as the "reactionairy" for reacting to those people, lol.

lol, lmao even. To be fair, it would make some degree of sense for that to be the meaning. Sadly, they brought sense to a conversation in English. If only they’d thought to take five seconds to google it.

taps the sign with the Mao quote

one time I told my chud cousin that America actively antagonizes other nations or sets up dictators as a pretense for invading them. He responded "No, America is purely reactionary. Foreign countries are provoking us." And I agreed with him. "Yes, America is reactionary." He got all smug and then I left, I got what I wanted out of the exchange lol

No, America is purely reactionary.

You see, you reacted to me. Checkmate tankie reactionary smuglord

[–] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It wasn't even the first word they used incorrectly today

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

on the topic of definitions:

stolid /stŏl′ĭd/ adjective

Having or revealing little emotion or sensibility; impassive. Hopelessly insensible or stupid; not easily aroused or excited; dull; impassive; foolish.
Similar: dull impassive foolish Having or revealing little emotion or sensibility. Having or revealing little emotion or sensibility; not easily aroused or excited.
"her face showed nothing but stolid indifference"

Imagine naming yourself "stupid/dull/impassive/not easily aroused/ect and doesn't have a strong opinion on religion". what a killer username.

That's some peak Nu Athiest/Rationalist naming convention there. Maybe they fell through a time warp from like 2008?

The nice thing about arrested development is you always know when that person feels like they peaked.
