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

Gee back in my day the mark of the beast was a barcode on your forehead and now it's when a video game has a woman without makeup?
It makes no sense. The Mark of the Beast is supposed to be a Bad thing that Satan or the Antichrist or whomever forces people to take on
They don't even know what biblical prophecy they're yelling about
They just learned it from the weirdos who yelled at them about it and the people they learned it from didn't know what the fuck they were talking about either
The "mark of the beast" isn't a pentagram, which is a pagan symbol villainized by Christians that has no biblical backing. The mark of the beast is the number 666 placed on everyone's right hand or forehead - and everyone has to do it or they get cut out of society and exiled.
So the chuds here are taking on the role of the anti-christ if they are forcing the mark onto other subjects, and they are trying to "exile" the "woke" elements in the industry (women, trans people, queer people, non-white people) through shaming them. They much better fit the beast in this metaphor than any woke people do.
if they are applying the mark of the beast to games, that makes them the anti-christ/beast in this metaphor lmao. Not sure if they thought that one through.
