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. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

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

Marking this NSFW because it's extremely online.

Context: Mr Pepperoni (d*stiny) said the n-word on his podcast like 3 days ago. SeanDaBlack watches the clip on his twitch stream and says "this is why we should have killed slave owners". Clip is posted on reddit and now on the front page. Reddit is mad about SeanDaBlack saying we should have killed slave owners and not mad at d*stiny for saying the n-word.

SeanDaBlack is a leftist and friend of Hasanabi. SeanDaBlack gained popularity online when he programmed a bot which spams anti-abortion websites with fake info (extremely cool).

Reasons that I'm posting this: 1) advocating to kill slave owners is the same reason /r/cth was banned. 2) it's on the front page of /r/all 3) figures like Brianna Wu are now posting the clip on twitter.

How many slaves does this guy Density or whatever own?

Destiny's family is from Cuba. It has been previously revealed that his family were Cuban reactionaries. This was a time period when he had made the claim that gusano was a racial slur. Gusano, a spanish word for "worm", is a derogatory term for counterrevolutionaries in Cuba. I'm not sure but it is possible that his family did own slaves in Cuba.

He had his mom on stream talking about how much he would have loved his grandfather's sugar cane plantation. So unless they were working the land themselves...

Oh my god, he comes from a straight-up plantation family. Some days, I'm grateful I'm only really online enough to be here

Yup, the guy and his entire family are literal fucking gusanos of the absolute worst kind lmao

Sugar cane is famously horrible to grow and harvest, especially until the 1960s or so. I'm sure no one who actually worked the land would look too fondly at the time there.

You can find pictures of the slaves who had to turn it into molasses and their skin is covered in scars from boiling molasses splattering on them and sticking to them. Wretched, awful stuff. Anyone defending that shit should get thrown into the fryer at the nearest fast food restaurant.

I don't really know anything about the process, what makes sugarcane especially bad to harvest?

his mother said as much on stream. they left because they lost their family plantation.
