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.

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 haven't seen so much effort put into a set in years. This would decent if it wasn't so damn propogandistic. Of course the message is "communism hates science".

From the Netflix science-fiction series Three Body Problem

But somehow the book made it about genders determinism

Yeah there is some weird hangups about women in the book that are just cringe , probably has to do with the fact the writer is a STEMlord lol

The dude is basically an effective altruist, he said in an interview some years ago about how Elon Musk gives him hope for humanity because tech will make everyone better (he also said that human dying is trivial because millions of people die anyway as history marches on).

The EA mindset and the rich people being the helmsman of progress is nothing new. Kim Stanley does that in his work too. Maybe that just sci-fi writer brainrot
