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

That whole site is basically Facebook for gen x and millennials, except significantly more obnoxious and unfunny. I mean you literally can't have a single post without the first (several!) comment(s) being some stupid fucking karma farming pun or joke.

I literally was looking up images of chocolate cake so I could find recipes and I clicked on a picture that led to a reddit post asking about a recipe that could make moist, dense chocolate cake. Just a normal request, what's a recipe for good fucking chocolate cake?

The first 200+ comments on that post were all puns. I had to scroll all the way to the bottom to actually find people contributing actual recipes and techniques.

God they are so fucking worthless.
