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 not good, folks.

Socialism is when the government supports social stuff, like social housing, social media, and let's not forget, social credit score. Counter to what it sounds like, it is actually socially oppressive: due to its being a type of -ism, it is inherently anti-freedom and democracy. If you want both social stuff and freedom, considering supporting social democracy in the next election.

This is the same reasoning wignats use against Black people

"Hey would you ever actually want to live in a ~~socialist~~ Black community after we bombed them and took half their wealth away? Oh well I guess that means you're a hypocrite"
