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

Coastal elite, woke cabal fake working class: Writers making starvation wages (they wrote a black character once)

Real, hardworking proletariat: Millionaire “farmers” (rural = working class)

The funny thing is, I'm a non-binary vegan commie with a silly haircut, and I've worked in manual labor and physical farm jobs more than any anti-woke right-wing tool I've met.

I also come from a family of electricians, builders, farm hands and carpenters. I'm as fucking working class as it gets.

In contrast, every IRL right-winger I've met has been a higher-up office worker

Ain't that the truth. The majority of the working class people I know don't really give a shit about politics. Like only management, pencil-pushers, and like a handful of real cranks even really talk Maga hog shit. The workers I talk to are a mix of vague conservative, liberal, proto-socialist, etc. Thoughts who haven't really spent a lot of time thinking about it beyond vibes because there's a material disconnect between politics and the material concerns of their daily lives.
