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

How can one man be simultaneously so stupid and also so dangerously irresponsible?

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity; never attribute to stupidity that which can be adequately explained by different lived experiences; and when those lived experiences happen to incentivize malicious acts and behaviors in a global system where the world's greatest fools can simply inherit immense social, political, and economic power from their parents with sometimes a pinch of postnatal dumb luck, then that's a bingo.

Never attribute to anything else that which can be explained by being Dutch

Don't judge a Dutchman until you've walked a mile in his wooden shoes.
