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've heard many tales of this mythical "more competent and effective" fascist and to them I say "have you met a fascist?"
Fascists are extremely rational and effective and it's why communism lost in the 21st century and the USSR collapsed. It's why 20+ million soviet citizens were killed. Fascists fulfill their role very well, to crush the left and stabilize and reset bourgeois capitalist systems.
Fascists only seem stupid and incompetent if you listen to what they say literally and take them at their words. The things they say are absurd, but they are distractions and tools to further their aims - which they almost always achieve. Don't underestimate the right.
