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 miss when marketibg twitter accounts was the Wendy's account doing epic posts instead of irrelevant tiny countries constantly being like " the soviets oppressed us just because we were nazis "

Estonia just keeps striking me as Finland, but without the sweet music and literature. Seriously the Kalevala is hardcore. I really hope it's not super popular with fascists. Granted, I'm American. Any culture we have we quickly try and stamp out. I'm genuinely shocked my family held onto some of our Polish traditions.

You got me wanting to buy a physical copy of kalevala, and this is one of the editions I see. To be fair, most of them don't have 50 swastikas on their covers. Death to finland.

Damn where’s the burning Finnish flag emoji

cursed cover holy shit

The title means "Kalevala for Young Adults" and the publisher is "Enlightenment", apparentely the first one was printed in 1922

Fuck, that shit is rough. I just had some generic looking Barnes and Noble cover. I guess that answers my worries.
