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

tldr: things are crazy so we must keep doing the same things we've always been doing to make it better.

the most galling part of this message is acknowledging biden's position on gaza and aipac's stranglehold over biden et al., but still not calling out biden on it; it would resonate MUCH more strongly for an ally to publicly call out an ally on being a patsy for isreal.

he's one of the very few people who could do it and i'm sure he knows that; but he still won't and i wish i could understand why because the sentimental part of me wants to rejoin that fold.

i suppose it could be argued that there's something to be said about presenting a united front; i just wish i knew what it is.
