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

Yeah I was so confused when I first heard this. And then I thought about it and it's like, this whole statement is shoddily built on anti-Russia vibes.
Paraphrasing "The civilizational (???) battle was between capitalism and communism after WWII. Russia was the enemy." A revisionist statement considering the US sent forces right after WWI in an attempt to put down the Bolsheviks.
Then it bleeds into some bizarre statement that Tucker and other right wingers think that the systems in athe US and Russia are the same... it's because they are! Both are capitalist states. Liberals love to divorce from reality and act like an authoritarian country can't be a capitalist country. I guess it's another demonstration why the term is just a neoliberal invention to make it seem like the baddies are really different from the good ol' US of A.
