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

Most compound words with punk as the suffix are super duper not punk. If it's two separate words it's probably not poser or nerd shit. Thisbinclude cyberpunk.

This is what my brain now defaults to when hearing "Solarpunk"

This is exactly what I was getting at in this comment when I say that too much of the root dna of "punk" has been removed such that it becomes transformatively different to the point that the -punk suffix no longer applies.

if you're a genre movement first and foremost being a -punk is cringe. -punk in music is alright more often
