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

Do y'all ever hover over the enter key and wonder "wait, am i about to dunk on a child? A bot? A liberal? What the hell is on the other side of the screen writing these banal, awful things? What am I doing here?"

Got in a disagreement online and the other person kept changing their arguments and contradicting themselves. I wasn't overly rude or insulting but after a couple comments my tone was not kind. Suddenly all these people showed up in the discussion getting all butthurt. Even her husband started to get all agro at me in the comments. Apparently she had a stroke at some point and had difficulty organizing her thoughts since. She was objectively wrong and they were all mad at me for trying to give the OP correct information.

what am I doing here?

I ask myself this every day
