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

I like the little dork that thought up a cool interaction where he got to be condescending to a service worker. Yeah man you totally owned that imaginary barista lol. They always fantasize about doing that kinda stuff because they won't do it in real life.

Whenever I see people denigrate baristas I think of that Brennan Lee Mulligan bit: "Baristas dont deserve a livable wage? Do you think you should be able to buy a cup of coffee? Okay, then you're bad. Baristas do more than whatever it is you do"

rat-salute to you brave soldiers posting at them over there. Love how the comments with actual references are heavily downvoted whilst the smug idiots posting gotchas that in no way engage with factual reality and have no sources are up voted over there. Truly a chamber of geniuses and a forum for intelligent discourse over there (unlike here we are perfect uwu)

lol why does every one suddenly become an expert in German history when this topic is brought up

80% of hexbear is trans and the last 20% is uncles and uncles love WWII. They're not suddenly experts, they just don't often get an outlet

I wasn’t referring to the people here, but to the redditors.

Just caught a 3-day ban for trolling their subreddit. Funny thing is I wasn't trolling. I just pointed out that "scratch a leftist and a fascist bleeds" is a terrible response. Guy tried to clap back and I just kept pointing out how shit his responses were lol, this is apparently too much for them. You don't even need to scratch these people, you can just give them a gentle poke.
