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

Really ironic that Yorke and Jonny Greenwood are Zionists since OK Computer was influenced by writers like Chomsky.

Why couldn't they just be cool

I feel this so much these days. Like motherfucker why couldn't you just be cool? Better to be silent than open your mouth and be known for a fool. I don't look at celebrity news anymore because I'm running low on artists from my childhood.

I don't even know what half my favourite music artists look like for this reason.

Fun fact: the miku twitter account that made the original "shut up transphobe, i made Minecraft" joke that inspired this also made a tweet saying that you cant actually seperate Rowling's bigotry from the actual work like you can with Minecraft. Basically saying "Miku made x" isnt an excuse to engage in a work uncritically.

Now, as a Death of the Author guy with some remaining affection for HP from childhood, i do still find "Miku wrote Harry Potter" enjoyable. But i thought it was important to note.
