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

Yeah, because the Algerians just famously sat around and waited for the French to leave, and even if they fought, not like they were in any actual danger.

Yeah the French totally left all on their own, and this love of the freedom fighters is comparable to American conservatives.

That thread is a ~~gold~~ crap mine of dunk tank posts.

I've noticed White Man's Burden has pretty explicitly evolved into the Western Liberal's Burden. Other cultures are inferior because they don't accept liberal democratic values / are socially regressive, so therefore mass violence against them is acceptable to correct that behavior (don't ask where many of them got stuff like homophobia though).
