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

Why is Bugs Bunny dropping the anvil? Does this guy not know that Bugs lives in a cartoon world where a coyote literally runs off a cliff and floats in the air for a minute until he realizes that there's no ground under him?

Further evidence that gravity isn't real. You're only proving his point.

He's saying that the earth is flat and gravity isn't real. But scientists want you to think the earth is a ball for some reason so they made up this idea called gravity to explain the ballness of the world. But the truth is that everything explained by gravity can be better explained by simple density/buoyancy. Less dense things float on denser things.

The problem is that it is disproven by his presence here on the surface rather than at the core of the earth

Less dense things float on denser things.

Mercury is a liquid. The anvil is a solid. Therefore the mercury is less dense than the anvil and should float above the anvil. This disproves the theory of buoyancy, which was created by (((scientists))) in the 17th century to distract from the magnificence of God's Grace.

he should try jumping off a building to test his theory.

I'm sure a vat of mercury would provide a nice, soft landing for a man going terminal velocity.

We should drop an anvil on this dudes head.

People are flat earthers for the same reason people are centrists. They want to feel superior to everyone, so they choose a ludicrous position that can be defended with their level of understanding and shout loudly and refuse to engage whenever someone challenges their position.

It's so dumb, but man I love this shit

[–] fox@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

Mike Oxbig is definitely a troll name tho

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Also I wish these guys hadn't ruined pretending you believe something ludicrous and making up fake science to justify it. That's one of my favorite kinds of fucking with people.

Rabbits can't lift anvils.

The second I read "Vector" I remembered to get back to studying GIS. Much thanks.
