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

“Who do you pray to when you lose something?” Ang asks in her video. “Are you above a drunk cigarette? Or even a sober one? Have you seen Bronx Tale, Goodfellas, Moonstruck, My Cousin Vinny? Godfather?”

Can you really say you understand the plight of African Americans if you haven’t watched every single Madea movie?

And people say white people have no culture, look at all these movies about anti-social psychopaths!

Culture is when smoke cigarette and/or watch hugely popular American movies. I hate to say it, but even the saes are less culturally void than this.

Quite telling how culturally empty north americans are that they so desperatly cling to vague cultural markers they’re convinced they belong to despite never properly engaging with said culture. Its the equivalent of chuds playing dolls with their wojaks, a bunch of clowns stuck in plato’s cave. I seriously couldnt put in to words how much contempt i hold for these people. You are not (insert x country)-american. You are american. Please stop.

black women and WOC

Women of Calabria?

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Women of Cyprus. Cypriots are a close analogy because they're also a Schrodinger's white person. Depending on who's asking, they're either white or they're not. Almost as if the modern American conception of race is kinda stupid
