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

MODERATORS
Guy's brain been fried lately. Youtube algo always loved him, but it didn't bother me before because it was mostly just generic gamer stuff. Then the last few months it's almost exclusively clips of him whining about how woke stuff is.
It's a good grift I think. Or maybe it's one that once they fall into that trap, they can't get out of it. Being a "Anti-woke" youtuber chases away any decent audience, and that audience won't be coming back, so they're forced to pander to these losers for profit.
Some of the other OTK members seem to have hinted that he leans into it more than he actually believes because he drives viewers.
Who cares, doesn't matter why he’s saying it, he’s putting my life and the lives of my comrades in danger. So why even mention that some people “hinted” that he’s just being a piece of shit for money.
Me saying that some of his colleagues say that he leans into it for views isn't me casting moral judgement on what he's doing or excusing it. I'm responding to the person above me who said that he's grifting with a comment saying that's also apparently what some of the people in his org seem to think.
Oh my apologies, I must have misread/misinterpreted your above comment
It's fine, no worries.
