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

I can't tell people not to I touch things in my apartment? Fucking what?
Don't these people worship property and ownership?
Only as a convenient vehicle for dominating their surroundings. The moment it conflicts with what they want they snap.
You already know the person who wrote this article wants to keep their shoes on in the apartment.
"Please don't touch my emotional support ball of radium and asbestos"
"Fuck you, I'm the guest, I do whatever I want"
The thing about western individualism is the ethos is “fuck you, no one tells ME what to do!”
The keyword is ME. Individualism is thinking rules are beneath you, but hypocritically, rules should only apply to other people.
They care about property, not possessions. It's why they're anti-piracy even if you're only using your own possessions to do it.
