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 understand this to be an official endorsement of racism from the mod team at shitjustworks

Enjoy this attempt to find a single non-racist among our new friends

heres a question. is this racist?

are these depictions of both fictional and real black people racist. for context I am black and im am using these to counter your argument. many people in the past have argued that these images arent racist because they are just deceptions of black people and their features. its obviously not ok to depict a black man as a monkey. but I could sit here and make the same incredulous claims as you. that black people have dark skins and big lips so that makes it ok to exaggerate those features in a grotesque way.

side by side how can you not see the similarites
