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

My (anecdotal non-professional-psychologist) theory is that a lot of male incels didn't have much socialization with girls as children. I keep thinking back to my own childhood. Had a best friend in the same social circles, same classes in school, same hobbies and interests, same geographical area, parents in the same socioeconomic group, went to the same church, etc etc etc. But he went the incel route, and I didn't. The biggest difference between us is that he was an only child with a handful of cousins he rarely saw. I have a younger sister and a lot of female cousins. Between them and their friends, I had plenty of age-appropriate socialization with girls. I remember a lot of occasions when I had tell my friend when he was acting weird around girls.
