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

If he were an actual pedo he would use the exact same excuses. [...] We're charitable to Vaush from watching him for so long, so of course we're willing to believe when he explains the situation.

Jesus Christ can you imagine writing this and not realizing anything? This is some cult shit, and a cult led by a pedophile probably won't end well.

I honestly don't get the dedication to the guy. If you like his content, whatever, but I struggle to think of a single current interweb celebrity I like enough that'd I'd go THIS HARD to bat for, this includes people who put way more effort and craft into their work than fucking Vaush. The dude just streams himself pontificating for hours, and you're this dedicated to him? Wtf is wrong with you?

try criticizing nathan j robinson here and you'll likely get a little taste of the kneejerk defense of a parasocial friend

There were false accusations against him wrt union busting, but that doesn't make him not a piece of shit for other reasons

Yeah, he sucked before the "union" flap, he still sucks. He's got a classic western chauvinist view of AES and foreign policy
