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 just don't even engage with anyone saying anything along those lines anymore. It's like talking to a flat earther. There is just too much of a gap in foundational knowledge that can't be bridged to even begin having a discussion.

Dude called me a "pronoun demon" and i think we should reclaim that

[–] culpritus@hexbear.net 27 points 2 years ago

It's like the inverse of a angel-biblical but the eyes are different pronouns

[–] RedQuestionAsker2@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pronoun demon is awesome. Nobody can ever refer to the pronoun demon because the pronoun demon's pronouns are like pi, just infinitely generating. If someone tries, they will surely perish.

peppino-angry DON'T HAVE KIDS IF YOU'RE SO POOR!!

peppino-scream WHY IS NO ONE HAVING KIDS??

[–] zifnab25@hexbear.net 50 points 2 years ago

The responsible way to have kids is to wait until you're forty, spend $50k on IVF, and then die in childbirth.

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 54 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Also dickheads like this guy: Why won't anyone have children anymore?boohoo

[–] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Same with Elon they're more concerned with the "right" kind of people breeding.

I want to strangle hustle grind culture to death with my bare hands.

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 39 points 2 years ago

Gulags are a tiny fraction of the dystopic this dude’s state-mandated birth control regime would be.

People like this are so evil that they're completely alien to me. It's like seeing a pod person. All their humanity is gone.

One again, the anglos are acting like how they claim Jews act like.

White people are collectively just Team Flare from Pokemon. Even Elon Musk is basically Lysandre.

[–] Hello_Kitty_enjoyer@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

The Jewish conspiracy is just an Anglo psyop

it's one of the reasons they gave the Jews Israel

They need someone to take the heat

WASPs are so bad, that if I recall correctly, there was a proto-zionist group called Lehi that saw them as a bigger threat than nazi Germany.

I command this piece of shit buy me a ticket to his town so that I may beat him to death

[–] odmroz@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Bluecheck is shooting himself in the foot. Where will we get cheap, disenfranchised labor to victimize if we don't coerce people to reproduce?

[–] nelsnelson@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago

The Southern capitalists have understood this dynamic since back in the day when enslaved women were used for breeding and abortion was destruction of property.

There's probably a word to describe this type of political ideology

”Why are all these dogs barking and why won't they stop? All I said is the POOR should be forcibly sterilized"

...

Way to literally say it out loud, about how I feel society feels about me and other comrades who haven't been fortunate enough to have been born into families with generational wealth and or financial stability, and that every instance of interaction requires $$$ to some degree. Like I wanted to be a parent originally but everyday I don't see it happening more and more, not unless it's a polycule situation with partners able to bankroll everything for the kids to make sure they don't fall into the cracks. I want to waffle stomp that removed into a storm drain gdmn.

Sorry, common Aussie slur / vulgar slang for vagine, it's not a super duper awful slur but I'll do better

[–] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

no child should be subjected to poverty

so let's do, you know, social programs, mutual aid, and a protracted peoeples' war against the capitalists who created poverty.

[–] EatPotatoes@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

It’s disturbing how our ability to naturally and some cases kinda sorta spontaneously reproduce has become so offensive to some people. It’s the next part of our existence prime for ongoing commodification with mass infertility from pollution and over medication.
