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

These astroturfed hog songs are so fucking awful. Bad writing, bad sound etc. I hate that they get so many views so quickly what-the-hell

Every chud listens to it on repeat for like two days to force everyone around them to also hear it.

Very few of them are even there to pretend it's real music. It's just about forcing others to suffer, just like all of their politics.

This reminds me of a family member forcing me to listen to one of these awful songs. It's excruciating ohnoes

Remembering the time a libertarian roommate put on Whiteboy and was like "wow he's spitting bars"

There were like 12 half-assed "Let's Go Brandon" songs charting on iTunes (lmao) when the phrase/meme got popular. I'm sure there's like 0 effort out into this stuff and the hogs just joylessly lap it up/compulsively pay money for it.

Kid Rock - 'We The People' - uses the Let's Go Brandon chant in one of the choruses, and the whole song is so hilariously bad that last year it became one of my most played songs. Always cheered me up.

their core marketing strategy is using bots to get in the rankings, same genre of tricks used to rig bestseller lists
