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 China says "no" to this unilateral yoinking of moon rocks by the burger reich, I am sure they will be painted as unreasonable

Wow, watch space investment suddenly become important again to avoid commie moon bases (again)

It would be extremely funny if America's moon landing (already postponed to 2027) gets further postponed, and China's moon landing (slated for "before 2030") gets pushed forward

xigma-male You can have a rock if Joe Biden draws a clock on live TV.

You know how some websites will be like "Will ship anywhere except COMMIEFORNIA"? The Chinese Space Agency should put out a statement like that, say something like "local laws prohibit us from sending samples to American addresses."

How about Japan or India? Share the samples to their space agencies instead
