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

Shoutouts to the educators trying to instill into people that 'natural selection' doesn't magically turn animals into some mythical super strong super smart optimized ubermensch creatures after being cooked in the oven long enough, it just optimizes for animals who are able to successfully propagate enough to replace the dead.
'Natural selection' could 'optimize' towards hominids that almost universally die of health complications around 25 as long as they are better at surviving to maturity and cumming in each other and popping out a bunch of babies to continue the cycle.
If the eugenicist model was correct, we would be overrun by super-intelligent and super-strong baby turtles within days, since only like 1 in 10.000 survive to adulthood.
Perhaps the turtles are hiding their power and biding their time. Those shells could be hiding Hamas bases with WMD by now for all we know
If the eugenicist model was correct then we would all become crabs as it is clearly the most efficient form
