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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
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

MODERATORS
Lol, do these people even live in San Fran? Like Chinese-Americans are the single largest demographic in the city, I think like 25%. And most of them aren't insane gusanos who hate China.
They literally believe that either they hate China, or they get paid by the see see pee to support them. There is no alternative.
Genuinely supporting your government is an alien concept to americans.
A government doing anything positive is also an alien concept
Getting though thr idea that people's lives have gotten noticeably and regularly better and so they're pretty okay with the government generally I'd really really hard to get through to people.
Lol, many Chinese-Americans speak to family in China all the time online, they can get a good idea what life is like in China and therefore have a better idea on Xi Jinping.
I'm in east coast Canada and knew that.
I know right? These same redditors also freak out when they learn a half dozen major Chinese newspapers are for sale all over San Francisco. They Google search the name of a newspaper then freak out when they learn it's the Chinese equivalent of the New York Times or Washington Post.
I always wonder if they just skipped over the chapter in their highschool US history book that talked about how Chinese immigrants built the US railroads west of the Mississippi and were much of the labor in the early days of California. How the California Bay Area has had a large Chinese population going all the way back to the states early history.
