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

As usual I have trouble modelling what it's like to be a person like this. I'm not beyond violence against my enemies or even taking pleasure in revenge, but at least I acknowledge that that's not the ideal scenario.

I don't want to kill fascists or billionaires, I want them to live in the world we created and admit we were right. I know we're going to have to kill a lot of them, but that doesn't make it good.

So seeing an actual genociderie come out and say "I want these people, their families, their children, dead, for no other reason than it gives me pleasure and expands my power" makes me not angry, but disoriented and nauseous.

What makes a soul twist like this. It's not normal, it's not right. It's worse than an illness, it's a rot.
