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

Adrian Dittmann regularly goes on Alex Jones' Twitter Spaces show. His schtick is that he sounds exactly like Elon Musk but never admits to being him. The hosts of the Knowledge Fight podcast have been covering it and trying to decide if it is or isn't him. If it is, it's uniquely pathetic. If it isn't, it's uniquely pathetic in a different way.

Heard a clip on Western Kabuki, and if that's not Elon Musk then it's the guy who does the Elon Tusk voice on Rick & Morty.

On Knowledge Fight they go back and forth between it being Elon, his brother, or a really good impersonator who's doing it so people think he's Elon. It's pretty spot-on and Alex Jones immediately goes into m'lord mode thinking it's actually Elon. I think it is Elon because he had that other weird account roleplaying as his child. The world's loneliest boy is inventing imaginary friends to tell him how smart he is.

It's great. Alex stops whatever the episode is about to make it a show about interviewing Adrian as if he's Elon Musk. Because Alex was unbanned by Elon personally, he feels personally indebted and is completely submissive.
