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 used to unironically believe in this shit lmao
Can you explain how? And how old you were? And how you realised it was all nonsense? I've never really spoken to a former ancap before, so I'm curious.
Late high school and through college. I chalk it up to being a super sheltered suburban WASP kid who developed an ill-defined "anti-authority" streak and got really into Ron Paul. And if you're terminally online like I was its not long until you're introduced to Rothbard and general ancap kookery.
Frankly, graduating and then having to work an actual shitty job and pay actual shitty bills was what knocked me out of that mindset. Once you're getting directly fucked by corporations nonstop in your daily life the whole concept of "Voluntarism" becomes completely indefensible.
Actually reading Rothbard and his clearly racist explanations for poverty in the third world is what made me realize it was all bullshit. Though, the idea of "private courts" always smelled fishy
Don't forget the baby markets
Thanks for that, confirms a lot of what I've seen about adult ancap types, that they're sheltered suburban WASP kids, but unlike yourself, their parents always bail them out so they've never actually had to work for a living.
