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

did yall find this hock ptooie thing funny or am i just an old scold now

I mean, it was a mildly amusing off the cuff response in a dumb tiktok. The way that straight men have collectively lost their fucking shit over it needs to be studied extensively.

#notallstraightmen

But maybe I'm just an old scold too?

I should have been more precise, sorry. I'm referring to a certain type of dumb guy. I think this kind of guy does not believe women can be funny or have sexual desires, so this clip is truly groundbreaking material for them.

No offense taken but the specification is helpful lol

Good, cuz if you got offended for being lumped in with straight man slander I would have had to double down and mock you directly, I fear. Just as a matter of principle

uhh what response by straight men? my friend showed it to me and I found it mildly amusing.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (3 children)

The manosphere / red pill losers believe that the West has fallen because women aren't pristine virgins until marriage, and thus some lady talking about sex acts offhandedly and positively is a huge trigger for misogynists who point at her and go "this is what made Rome collapse". It's incoherent nonsense based around seeking post-hoc justification for hating women

Oh my god. I just thought it was some good advice. My reaction was 'true'.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

It's a lady making a blue joke and everyone is taking it way overboard

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Don't you mean "the anthroposphere"? The manosphere is a big ball made of hands.

Sorry, I should say chud-adjacent. The Joe Rogan demographic. They've taken a clip that you might chuckle at and then move on and act like it's the funniest thing anyone's ever said.

I like the one with hillary clinton saying hwalk tu-ah polling station and vote on that thang

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

its not funny. i dont think many gen z find it funny. im p sure it mostly appeals to the cringy, misogynist members of the millenials and gen x

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

No because I’m in my 20s and not 30-50

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

No, in fact the only people I'm seeing who find it funny are boomers on Facebook
