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

Arguing Jesus didn't exist is such a reddit atheist brain rot discussion, especially on a forum where almost everyone is an atheist anyway. You're not convincing anyone of anything, you're just being cringe.

A simple link to evidence would suffice.

No. My whole point is that it's a stupid and immaterial argument to have.

Do you have a link to evidence that you exist as a person and not a chatbot?

Can you definitively prove Bill Shakespeare wasn't a pseudonym? That Marie Antoinette wasn't a fabrication by French Republicans? Or that Socrates was a real guy?

Dig enough and, for practically all historical figures, you are just taking it on faith that these were real people; that the records we have are not the product of some wildly elaborate fiction. Either you make your peace with that bedrock of ambiguity, or you might as well start watching videos about how the Pyramids were actually where aliens kept their barley reserves.
