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

Hakim's take is a little cringe but getting this worked up about it is orders of magnitude worse.

In retrospect, it reads like bait. Reminds me of the time during the Bush / Gore debate when Bush said Jesus was his favorite historical figure and Gore rolled his eyes, then spent the rest of the election apologizing for it.

RD is literally the guy from the "no everything has to be serious at all times" meme. This is the level of posting that could kill you via brain aneurysm if you're not careful.

He does this whenever he thinks hes got a hit tweet.

He once posted all day for like a full week about how he epic owned the nordics about food cause he posted "rotten reindeer cock" over and over, it used to be his bio like "destroyer of subhuman nordic cuisine" or something like that.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago

I mean, we are, but have you considered that we actually eat rotten fish, fish preserved in lye, and blood sausage, rather than rotten reindeer cock?

Which drug do you have to take to cause this specific hallucination? Asking for a friend.
