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

Not riverboat businesses, rather we have plenty of restaurants and clubs on rafts on the Danube river in belgrade.

But that's the least of our worries rn, we had elections last week and the current president and government organized massive theft of the elections. There have been massive protests for a week since. They drove people from Bosnia to vote in our elections, hell the Bosnian minister of security voted in the Belgrade mayoral elections and proudly posted about it on twitter. Apparently he's a resdient of Belgrade lol. Last night they sent a thousand cops at us to beat us up and break up the protest. Today student orgs are blocking infrastructure in Belgrade, and from 6pm we're going to the parliament building again to block it off.

Our president claimed that there were barely a thousand people gathered when he spoke through state media:

For the uninitiated our current president is Aleksandar Vucic, also known as Milosevic's minister of propaganda.

Ah! I misunderstood what my friend meant by "rafts". So these are more like fixed structures?

He'd alluded to having problems with Bosnians in the past, but didn't mention the minister voting. Hell of a situation - Hoping things go well with the demonstrations.
