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

Excited to see where he spins out to from here

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

We already know you don't live in objective reality, Scott.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago

The word "productive" is implying a lot here

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago

"I cant have a productive conversation with people who think" would be a way to improve the brevity and accuracy of this post.

What kind of brainworms are we on when facts are determined by their popularity?

I’m so sorry what is true is seldom what we want to be true.

I actually used to work with a self-proclaimed solipsist. A few of us went to his place for beers after work once, where he laid this on us. Straight up claimed we were all figments of his imagination.

Naturally, we wouldn't stop making fun of him about it all night and he got really pissed off lmao. che-laugh

Aren't these the same people claiming to understand "basic biology"? What happened to the oh-so simple science?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

Fascism. When even the simplest science go against their fascist beliefes they slide into open antiintellectualism.

Has he tried reflecting in the K-hole abyss like my-hero?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I think he may have caught Kennedy's brainworms
