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

It's genuinely bizarre how much the pig poo pic riles these people up, honesty I always thought it was one of our novice level memes, but these dipshits are actually pressed over it lmao wtf

It started off as a mid and low effort bit at best.. til we started seeing the reactions it got.... every time.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Exactly. It's only used because it works

Lib: "lefties call everybody that disagrees with them a fascist"

Lib, analyzing PPB: "this image is fascist, i will not elaborate" lenin-sure

Then they get 5 replies, answering all of them with some Russiagate rant, then their inbox blows up with 50 replies, which they reliably increase to 500 replies by answering every single one of them with a passive-aggressive post about how we're all mentally ill wumaos from a potato wodka country because we have pronouns other than he/him

“But Y’all ain’t ready for that conversation” is my activation phrase.

[–] [email protected] 83 points 1 year ago (4 children)

okay, so, here's my hottest take...

I feel bad seeing ppb because he looks that way because of hormones/animal farming

[–] [email protected] 53 points 1 year ago (5 children)

I was wondering how his balls got so massive.

Remember the Hexbear user who argued ppb is ableist because they had IBS?

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 year ago

That pig doesn't even have IBS, clearly

This is why you use the oxford comma kids, I think they’re trying to talk about pit and the like, not PPB

[–] [email protected] 50 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fuck you for hijacking my post to spread Oxford comma propaganda

Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma?
I've seen those English dramas too, they're cruel

But in all seriousness, I fully support oxford comma use.

Sure they are!

[–] [email protected] 56 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I am willing to concede to liberals the point that Fascism is when you poop on your own balls. I will compromise with them if they concede that Ukrainian Azov militias are a bunch of white nationalist freaks.

I am willing to make concessions on my end of the table if they are willing to meet me in the middle on this salient point.

Didn't ppb start in the old sub? How would that be a fascist dogwhistle?

Hand to God, I do not understand any of the context in this post. From the comments, ppb seems to mean "pig pooping on balls" but what does any of this have to do with fascism? Why do people post it? Who is hexbear?

Also

Why do some people not like the pig pooping on his balls?

Edit: oh hexbear is this instance. duh.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

Pig poop balls has been a longstanding response by former /r/chapotraphouse users. It was common on reddit before the subreddit was banned, and it carried over to here.

It's basically just a response that the dirtbag left decided to use whenever a reactionary was around. It taught people to stop bothering to "debate" them because they're not doing so in good-faith so there's no point wasting time. Mocking them works better.

This is the original pigpoopballs:

Hexbear is a leftist instance that was the successor to the chapotraphouse subreddit after it got banned. PPB is an image of a pig with gigantic balls that has pooped on its own balls. This image is generally posted as a way of saying that whoever you're talking to is an asshole not worthy of a real response.

Why are they so fucking soft? Navigating the world and falling into shambles by being trolled with png of poopy pig balls must be pretty fucking tough.

If any of you libs visiting need someone to talk to. You can DM me. I don't know if I can help you. But, good god, hope someone can.

something tells me the aggressively lib internet understander named "demographics" is going to have some neomalthusian / Great Replacement adjacent take.

I gotta know how PPB has fascist roots!? I need to know! And it better be more that "fascism is when you're rude to me"
