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

The anti-circumcision movement has always presented kind of a problem for me; I agree with them wholeheartedly, but the way they go about it is…eh. Like I know (or really hope) they don’t protest with photos of mutilated baby dicks the way weird pro lifers show photos of aborted fetuses, but if you told me protesters at the Iowa State Capitol were holding up photos of baby foreskin I’d prrrrrobably believe you? Yeah.

I'm troubled by the way you group the whole uncirc movement together, or blame them for things they haven't yet done. It seems to be in bad faith.

I apologize. I was trying to do a funny.

No? I just said that I agree with them in principle, but, and this was meant to be somewhat tongue in cheek, they sound kinda weird when they talk about baby penises.

I honestly legit wish this wasn’t a problem, and I know they’re acting in good faith (again, I support them).

It's fine. I'm really touchy about not being about to enjoy sex and my family being really gaslighting about it all.
