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

Hating on Nickelback unprompted is a tired meme like hating Comic Sans ("See? I hate the thing everyone hates! I'm with it!"), but to say their music is "deeply affecting" is just lol. I assume this is contrarian purely for the sake of generating clicks (like half of the shit I see on YouTube).
Yup this is just the most contrarian take.
"Nickleback actually wasn't that bad" has been the hot take for a little bit now so gotta get back out there and go against the grain again and be the first one with the post-post-post- ironic take
Georgia Florida Line were produced by the same guy who produced all of Nickelback's biggest work, so they all objectively suck. On one hand, I genuinely like most Nickelback people. The people who still like Nickelback usually don't care what other people think, they're typically more honest than other people I meet. Regardless of their beliefs, there's an honesty there that other people don't have,
However the one nickelback contrarian I met was the most unbearable person I ever met. Dude got suspended for a quarter the year in school for selling weed. Normally I'd hate this, but holy shit his weed selling tactics were so unbearable that I was glad when I found out the school discovered his completely scent unconcealed weed.
