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

I'd love to hear Americans mind their own damn business and focus on fixing their country first, but I'm sure I'll die of old age before I see that.

But they are channel for us workers to get fucked by "we'll ship your job to mexico"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

No that's a good thing you see, u.s workers get cheap treats when we give the Mexicans jobs.

When the Chinese get jobs they're stealing food off of the plates of American workers and undermining the American way of life

This is the group that brought a "Hong Kong protester" to the big DSA meetup last year to talk about how China is bad and DSA should focus on criticizing them.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The 29th ones gonna Def be about how China needs more girl boss capitalists in the CCP government and the 17th April ones about how the u.s labor movement needs to achieve the standards set by Foxconn
