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

would not leave kids or horses to be watched by that man
Absolutely love to mock nature's perfect creations
anti-V@ush posting is apparently v*ush posting
Literally what other kind of V*ush posting is there?
The way I saw it,
V*ush saying some cruel shitty take fits in the dunk tank
Hour and a half video about the benefits of motorcycles from an urbanist soft-leftist anti-car perspective formulated as a response to V*ush saying some cruel shitty take fits in urbanism
wow v*ush has a bad take? stop the presses
Not trying to be mean but someone reported it 
Mostly I'm just annoyed that it cut off the arguments I was having
I thought about not deleting it and then I started to watch the video, heard V*ush speak and I just had to. Instant recoil at that awful man's voice.
Understandable, I have that same reaction to little benny's voice
I loved motorcycles until I lived in Mexico for a while and realized they have a different perception of what a “bike lane” is for. Constant lane splitting and going into bike lanes or even on the sidewalk to speed around traffic. My brother got hit by a motorcycle in a bike lane, thankfully his bicycle took the brunt of the impact and saved a mother and child from getting hit. Of course, the motorcycle likely wouldn’t have been in the bike lane if there weren’t cars congesting the road but there will always be impatient assholes and motorcycles are still dangerous for pedestrians
i just wanna ride my motorsickle
I'm not watching an hour and a half video, does he address the fatality rate?
Yeah it really can't be overstated how dangerous they are, 6/6 of the motorcycle riders I know have been in hospital for injuries sustained while riding, two of which were permanent (a limp and back pain). Part of that is the dominance of cars but I don't see that changing any time soon. And if we need dedicated infrastructure, we might as well just go straight to cycling.
Yes, starting about 34 minutes in. The main point is that cars are safer for their occupants specifically at the expense of the safety of everyone around them, while motorcycles are the other way around.
I've been in a dozen bike crashes
Yeah this guy has me convinced.
Once again popping in to represent anti-motorcycle gang
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
More like Donorcycle 
Great video he seems like a nice person just on the edge of becoming a socialist if he read theory(if he isn't already).
I don't regret watching all of it, this is well above average YT content these days, thank you.
brb buying a motorcycle
This dude is cool, I like him.
