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

This person has all the money they could ever wish for, all the opportunities to do what they want, to become whoever they want to be, to interact with whomever they wish to interact. They could pick up woodworking, blacksmithing, learn about science, philosophy, history, politics, the arts, whatever. Instead, they choose to do this, day in, day out. It's sad, honestly.

Compare and contrast E~L~O~N with Tom from MySpace. Tom just fucked off with a big cash-out and just goofs off all day every day taking pictures and surfing and stuff. Still bourgeoisie, but way less loathsome.

Tom hasn’t stayed in touch like I thought he would. I’m glad he’s doing okay.

He's just vibing, being a benign bourgeoisie. I mean, could be worse.

Genuinely, least damage done.
