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

MODERATORS
Haha - they'd actually do that.
A reporter speaks to Senator Franklee Aghoul (D-Connecticut)...
"Your bill legalizes the hunting of human beings could you—"
"No, it doesn't. The bill legalizes the hunting of migrants. Not Americans. And we are putting forward this bill to show the American people we are serious about immigration."
"But if it passes - hunting of human beings will be legal."
"First of all - we, the democrats, must show our resolve in controlling the border. Second of all - if the law passes only migrants can be hunted."
"So you're saying that migrants aren't human beings."
"I am not saying—. Actually - what news org are you with?"
Manu Raju of CNN sees an opening and pounces. "He's with LeftyNews."
"Hey, Manu - how ya doin'?" Then the senator points at the LeftyNews guy and says to security "Remove him. They keep sneaking in. He doesn't have permission to be here." Manu louly tells his camera guy to turn of the camera. The senator smiles. The LeftyNews guy protests, demands his First Amendment rights, and yells but they start frog marching him out. Manu and Frank watch. Frank laughs and tells a joke about a priest, a rabbi, and Biden at a bar in Gaza. But Manu's mien is serious befitting the situation. Finally the LeftyNews guy is out of the building and his yelling can't be heard anymore.
"So, senator - could you explain the all-important political dimensions of the Democrat's MigrantHunting bill?"
"Finally - somebody who speaks my language!"
