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

It's just scientific fact that they love being slaves to corporations unlike us, the proudly independent and individualistic Westerners smuglord

I had once wanted to do a private film streaming within my own private Discord server, but a japanese in the group objected to it, saying that Discord TOS did not allow us to stream films, and if we did that would be piracy.

I encounter plenty of anti-piracy nerds day-to-day. What makes this dude so special it warrants handwaving their whole country? My brother complained about piracy for a time I downloaded a movie to watch in a place without broadband. I finally bought a digital copy on Google Play just to shut him up about it.

These no-fun-allowed dweebs are absolutely everywhere.

You can't fool me- your brother's clearly also Japanese
