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

I am one of those rare people who is doing "ok". But that's because I live in a goddam commune with 4 other well educated and paid trans women. If I was your stereotypical cis het person trying to start a family I have no fucking idea how I would survive.

I wonder if it would be possible for everyone to live in a commune. ~~A giant global commune~~ A massive commune system within a single country.

We are having trouble adding the 5th to the mortgage so I don't think slowly adding people will get us there! Maybe we need some kind of massive turnover of our social system, like some sort of spinning of society to reinvent it and throw off inefficiencies and injustices.

You don't. It's incredibly stressful.
