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

Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.

Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo

Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting

Deeply unserious people

And they also hated the Black Panthers.

Any org/group whatever that hates the BPP are reactionaries and should never be trusted.

I agree completely, I didn't realize this was their point until after I joined. I admit, I didn't do the due diligence of research into the group before joining. I knew, and was friendly with, some people in the group before joining and my desire to stop being an armchair communist made me jump the gun. The only other group in the city was a trotskyist group, this one was an anti revisionist Marxists Leninist (so they call themselves). They legit see themselves as communists. Just the type of western communists to hate ever AES and any meaningful group, won't support Hamas because it's not along class lines, etc etc.

Quickly learned and gtfo

If PSL were around I would have joined them :(

Also, I think they hated the BPP because they had some jealousy that China supported BPP and not them. Not completely certain if that's the reason. Trivial and embarrassing shit.
