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

We're on like

They came for black men
They came for undocumented people
They came for asylum seekers protected under US law
They came for indigenous water defenders
They came for some people who didn't want a "School of the Americas but for Cops" built in a park
They came for trans people
They came for Palestinians

There aren't many fucking people left but the Libs haven't taken the message yet.

I'd say they're like rats on a sinking ship, but I don't want to insult rats. If they had the ability to stop their ship from sinking, they would do so.

Rats will help other rats escape from an uncomfortable situation even if they have to sacrifice immediate gratification (treats/food)

I'm not so sure about a lot of liberals
