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

Reading these comments make me realize how lucky I was not to get beat or hit as a kid. One of my friends was and his parents stopped beating him when he got old enough to grab the belt and throw it across the room.

I'm so cool for being abused as a child and I also think it was a good thing

So now I'll take that abuse out on Millennials and Gen Z because I yield a different kind of belt. I actually really love my master Boomer parents for showing me my place and now it's time you knew yours! liberalism

Silent Gen [wooden paddle with holes] -> Boomers [Belt with holes] -> GenX [Ticker tape stonks-down with loopholes] ->

Millennials "hey previous gens don't you see what you're doing and the consequences for it? Maybe stop it? Change course?"

Gen Z "yeah what the fuck oldies?!"
